Description

From the bottom station at the Kitzbüheler Horn cable way, take the Hornbahnen I and II up to the striking Kitzbüheler Horn/ Alpenhaus (lift tickets are available directly at the Bergbahn ticket office). Once at the top, we have to take one more lift ride: on the first floor of the Hornbahn II top station is the top station of the "Alpenhaus" double chairlift. Instead of going up we use this chairlift to take us down to the Trattalmmulde. When you arrive at the Trattalmmulde, take the marked path "Trattalmrunde", which leads off the ski slope towards Hornköpfl to the Hornköpfl lake, which is a popular photo motif in summer. Enjoy the panoramic view of Hornköpfl, the Loferer and Leoganger Steinberge as far as the Berchtesgaden Alps. From the Hornköpfl lake we take the same way back to the Trattalmmulde, where you take the chair lift to the Alpenhaus. Stop again at the mountain station and let the incomparable panorama with a view of the snow coverd Kitzbüheler Südberge up to the Großglockner (3,798 m), Austria's highest mountain, up to the majestic Großvenediger group.
