Giant - AdventureTrail

Going-Ellmau

  • Starting point: Astberg cable car
  • Destination: Hartkaiserbahn
  • Pure walking time: 2 hours
  • Length: 7 km
  • Level: Easy to medium

Directions

Having arrived on the Astberg Going with the chairlift, I experience the idyllic Astbergsee lake, which is rightly called the Mirror of the Emperor! At the Pony Alm, I can explore the area on the backs of ponies. The high-altitude hiking trail leads towards Ellmi's Zauberwelt. There I hike uphill and downhill through meadows and forests in untouched nature until I reach the Hartkaiser. Once at the top, there is plenty to experience in the magical world of Ellmi the frog. Finally, I take the comfortable Hartkaiserbahn cable car down into the valley and take the "KaiserJet", the free bus service, to the starting point in Going.
