The gentle tour
.Open the door and the Maiskogel family hiking area is at your feet. And with it, relaxed hiking trails on lush green alpine pastures, panoramic circular routes and exciting hiking trails. Along the paths, the aroma of fluffy Kaiserschmarrn and hearty Kaspressknödeln lures you into the rustic huts, where many other regional delicacies await.
