Active & varied
Plan your fall vacation
Whether hiking, walking, mushroom hunting, biking, or skiing – in Pinzgau, vacationers get their money’s worth even in fall.
Fancy a guided fall hike or a leisurely fall walk?
Certified hiking guides will lead you through the breathtaking landscape of the Hohe Tauern. You will immerse yourself in the nature of the Alpine landscape and get to know the fauna and flora better. A guided hike on the Maiskogel is perfect for the whole family, while the “My first 3000er” summit tour is a real highlight for adults – with your state-certified mountain guide, you will hike to an altitude of 3,203 meters to the summit of the Kitzsteinhorn glacier.
Our tip for your hike without guide
How about the “SCHWALBENWAND-RUNDE”, for example?
The starting point is the parking lot behind the Mitterberg mountain inn. First, walk along a forest road until you reach narrow forest paths and continue hiking to the summit cross at 2,011 meters. The 11-kilometer hike is easy, but requires good footwear and sure-footedness. Let yourself be inspired by the fantastic scenery on your hike – snow-capped mountains, autumn landscapes, and Lake Zell. The best way back starts at Schwalbenwandweg No. 83, which passes the Schützingalm. You can also stop here for a bite to eat.
Autumn delights & culinary tips
Autumn delights & culinary tips
Autumn also promises culinary delights – let yourself be surprised by traditional Pinzgau cuisine or grab a wooden spoon and conjure up a traditional Pinzgau dish in the kitchen of Chalet Georg. For example, go mushroom hunting yourself – in the forests and alpine pastures you will find chanterelles and porcini mushrooms in damp, shady places.
