Description

The circular route starts west of Hotel Kaiserlodge in the centre of Scheffau. The groomed winter hiking trail leads across the fields of the Sonnwies district and offers beautiful views of Scheffau, the Wilder Kaiser and the surrounding mountain landscape. During the day, the route is ideal for a short and sunny winter walk. In the evening, it is also perfect for a leisurely stroll in the fresh winter air – for example before or after dinner.
The groomed trail is covered with artificial snow and illuminated daily until 9:30 pm.
