Summer Activities

From amongst the multitude of possible destinations and attractions in the region, we would like to recommend the following:

 

Buchacker Eishöhle Natural Monument (Buchacker Ice Cave)

At an elevation of 1,520 m, Buchacker, Angerberg's mountain, features the only ice cave and stalactites in the northern Tyrol.

The Buchacker Ice Cave has been environmentally protected since 1956. Explore the cave and its stalactite formations in the company of a professional guide. In any case, bring a hat and gloves! In the ice cave temperatures hover around zero, even in the summer.

You can find exact directions on how to get there on the Wanderkarte Hohe Salve interactive hiker's map.

Wild Gorges and Quiet Valleys

Just a few km away you will find wild ravines and quiet valleys offering highly recommended excursion sites.

The nearby Kundler Klamm (Kundler Gorge), according to legend created by an enraged dragon, presents a tranquil and idyllic landscape that beckons to be explored.

Daring hikers, without a fear of heights, and nature lovers will find unforgettable outdoor adventures in the wild Kaiserklamm (Emperor's Gorge) and in the Tiefenbachklamm (Deep Stream Gorge).

A completely intact ecosystem awaits you at the Kaisertal (Emperor’s Valley) Nature Reserve near Kufstein. Hiking in the valley is easy, but you do need to be in fairly good shape to cross the whole distance on foot. The Kaiseraufstieg (Emperor's Ascent) begins at Ebbs-Eichelwang, with approximately 280 stairs and a rise of almost 200 meters. Those who climb the steps are rewarded with breathtaking views.

You can find more information about the routes mentioned above, and other tourism destinations, at the hotel itself or here, on the TVB Alpbach-Seenland website.

Refreshing Mountain Lakes

No summer is complete without a plunge into some cool water. At the same time, enjoy dreamy mountain views reflected in the lakes around you.

A secret harboured by the locals: visit the little Stimmersee (Lake Stimmer), on the slopes of Mount Pendling, where dogs are also welcome.

With its excellent water quality, the Hechtsee (Pike Lake), is considered one of the most popular swimming sites in the area. The Hechtsee is also great for fishing and sailing.

A beautiful path runs between the two lakes.

Don't forget the Reintalersee (Reintal Lake), the Krummsee (Arched Lake) and the Berglsteinersee (Berglsteiner Lake), along with many other small, hidden ones. Many of them are so secluded that they can only be reached by following tips given by the locals. Just ask us and we'll give you information about the most beautiful spots!
