Summer in Hochkrimml

krimmlerwasserfalleAlso summer time offers a lot of possibilities for unprecedented holiday pleasure. The place of interest of Krimml are of course the Krimml Waterfalls; these are the highest waterfalls of Europe, falling down in three stages. See the website of Krimml.

Go for a walk!
Many walks are set in the unbelievable beautiful nature of the National Park Hohe Tauern. Behind the famous Krimml Waterfalls, you will find the vast Achental that you can reach by taxi bus.
As from here you can make endless mountain trips including a so called “Hüttentocht”.
With the help of a professional guide you can participate in Nordic Walking trips and you can make beautiful mountain walks.

Cycling
The Tauern Radweg (literally: the Tauern Cycling Path) is a magnificent cycle-track, far away from the highway with reasonable climbs and descends. For example you can cycle to Zell am See (approx. 70 km.) and take the slow train, including your bike, back home. You can rent bikes in Krimml at the gas station. www.tauernradweg.at
