Moderately Difficult Hikes

Pull on your walking boots and join us on a hike across Tirol! The first stage of the Eagle Walk provides a truly spectacular start to what is set to be an unforgettable journey from east to west. We begin our adventure in the Kaiser Mountains with their craggy grey peaks towering above lush green meadows. Some of the most famous mountains in this part of Tirol include the Maukspitze, Ackerlspitze, Regalpspitze and Törlspitze, all of which are over 2,000 metres high. The hike begins at the Gasthaus Rummlerhof, a guesthouse to the north-west of the centre of St. Johann. Upon arrival at your destination, the Gaudeamushütte, you can raise your glass and to a successful day and sing: "Gaudeamus igitur - Let us be happy!". Alternatively, why not add an extra challenge and take on the 400 vertical metres up to the Gruttenhütte?

Is it about the journey or the destination? Well, one of the destinations of this stage is definitely the Hintersteiner See lake and its views. Surrounded by stunning mountain vistas, dwarf pine scrubland and beech forests, the lake is one of the cleanest and most beautiful mountain lakes in Tirol. The private pristine gem covers 56 hectares and measures 36 metres at its deepest point. With this picture-perfect backdrop, hikers will complete the remaining distance to the Kaindlhütte hut in no time.
