Hiking

One of the top viewing points on the Feuerkogel, actually an absolute must when you're up here. Here you have a fantastic panoramic view of the lakes and the surrounding mountains. Can be easily reached in an hour from the gondola lift.

Hiking

The European cross consists of cubes. Each cube stands for one EU country (as of 2009). Inside each cube is a stone of each EU country. For Austria e.g. a special piece of the Vienna St. Stephen's Cathedral and for Germany a piece of the Berlin Wall .... so not just any stone, but a special piece.

Hiking

The five meter high European Cross was built in 2006 at the time of the EU Council Presidency (1 January to 30 June 2006) and inaugurated on 23 June 2006. Idea, design and execution come from teachers and students of HTL Wels.
