Hiking & Nordic Walking

The hiking routes lead through enchanting landscapes from hill farm to hill farm or to the summit at an elevation of 3,000 m. From easy hikes to alpine challenges, there is something here for everyone. Enjoy regional delicacies at one of the many cozy huts and hill farms.

The always rewarding day excursion to one of these "side valley treats" is of course accompanied at every turn by crystal-clear, babbling brooks, which invite you to cool off especially on very warm days. All side valleys are equipped with barriers so that they can only be accessed by authorised persons (owners of alpine pastures, foresters, hunters, taxis).
