Description

Brandstadlbahn in Scheffau: 8-seater gondola lift to Brandstadl (1,650 m)

In summer, the KaiserWelt starts directly at the mountain station - the large play area on the mountain with KaiserWald, climbing wall, tree houses, and many play equipment.

For hikers, there are several cozy hiking trails such as the Panoramaweg to Hartkaiser Ellmau or the Eibergrundweg and the path to Jochstub’nsee.
Enjoy the breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains from Wilder Kaiser to the Kitzbühel Alps on the sun terraces of the mountain lodges and alpine huts.
