Hiking

The Scheibwaldhöhe is a viewpoint on the Rax plateau, offering tranquility away from the more frequented paths. Gentle alpine meadows alternate here with striking rock faces and open up wide views over the surrounding peaks. A worthwhile detour for anyone who wants to discover the quiet side of the Rax.
