Nature conservation area celebrates its anniversary
60 years ago, 1963 to be precise, the Kaisergebirge were conservation protected. At that time measures were put in place to protect rare animal species, with measures were put in place to preserve the unique and varied natural surroundings; these measures are still in place today. So this summer season everything is very much influenced by this celebration - 60 years of the Kaisergebirge nature conservation area. Let’s take care of animals and nature together!

Places of energy and consciousness
Adlerblick
"Eagle's View" – This energy-filled place is located directly at the mountain station. Anyone who gazes far into the distance with the ‘Viscope’, will also learn about the surrounding mountains – descriptions of the individual mountains and inns appear in the telescope.
Gratwanderung
"Ride hike" – The ridge of the Hocheck is located between the Steinberg and the Walleralm. The spiral, which is protected from the wind, tempts hikers to enjoy a leisurely rest. Meanwhile the ‘Viscope’ enables views far into the distance, bringing the mountain peaks closer to those who are interested.
Freiraum - Raum - Zeit
"Freedom - Space - Time" – The basic outline of this space, which is approx. 3 minutes from the mountain station, is a spiral. Here, your gaze is drawn to the north face of the Wilder Kaiser – a natural gem that is worth exploring. It is also where hikers can experience astonishing views on the impressive Kaisergebirge.
Himmelschauen
"Sky-gazing" – The Gamskogel is a magical place to observe the sky and the clouds. The spiral-shaped larch wood bench makes it possible to gaze into all directions, or to just take a seat in the inner section – depending on the sunshine and how your mood takes you.
