Hexenwasser Söll-Hohe Salve

MARVEL - GRASP - UNDERSTAND

Every summer, the witches open their doors to me and the whole family at the BergErlebnisWelt Hexenwasser Söll-Hohe Salve. Whether it's sunny or rainy, I can experience nature and its wonders at countless stations that invite me to get active. The Hexenwasser is a place for explorers, dreamers, the curious and all those who have not yet forgotten how to be amazed.

In Hexenwasser, I am invited to discover and understand for myself. I can explore the many stations, paths and chambers on my own. I can walk along the longest barefoot path through streams, over meadows and stones, find the right tone with the singing bowls and let it rain under the witches' umbrellas. On the sundial trail on the Hohe Salve, I can track down time and take a journey back in time on the Simonalm.

I can meet the witches in person in the witches' water and make my own witchcraft to take home with me. In witchcraft, I can learn more about old customs and wisdom in the bewitched chambers and parlors and take a footbath. A real beekeeper explains the world of bees in the apiary and why it is pitch dark in the beehive. Exciting discoveries also await me at the Simonalm and in the Blue Wonder, inviting me to explore, try and taste for myself. I learn secrets about the witches in the Raven's Nest and can blow colorful giant soap bubbles into the air.

Bookable experiences

The bewitched stations are included in the Hexenwasser ticket and can be explored partly under supervision and partly on your own. This is how I acquire real witchcraft knowledge at Hexenwasser Söll-Hochsöll! On the HeXpeditions, I can delve even deeper into the world of witches and gain heXclusive insights. The HeXpeditions can be booked online in advance for a fee.

Rain in witch water

Even when it rains, the witches are waiting for me at Hexenwasser to introduce me to their witchcraft skills. The supervised stations can be reached quickly with the Hexenwasser gondola lift and not only offer me a sheltered roof over my head, I can also lend a hand, work and cook with the witches.

There are numerous supervised stations under the roof, such as the popular bee house, the Simonalm, witchcraft and the"Blue Wonder". You can also buy hats, ponchos and umbrellas in the Hexenwasser store in the "Rabennest".

Barrier-free in the Hexenwasser

The Hexenwasser in Söll is mostly suitable for baby carriages.
Only the themed trails towards the Hohe Salve summit and the barefoot path are not suitable for baby carriages. Please ask the cable car team which paths you should avoid with baby carriages etc. (e.g.: chapel hike).
