Untersberg Cable Car Mountain Station

Highlight • Rest Area

High above Salzburg towers the Untersberg – a mountain full of stories and mysterious places. Legends tell of dwarves, emperors, and hidden caves. Those who set out on the trail will encounter tranquil forests, rugged cliffs, and sweeping vistas. Well-marked trails lead to alpine pastures and peaks. Those who wish can take the Untersbergbahn cable car to the Geiereck. The return journey? Whichever way you prefer – downhill through nature or via other routes back to the valley.

Easy and worthwhile ascent from the mountain station of the Untersbergbahn. Easy to do even with little fitness and mountain experience. Sturdy shoes are highly recommended!

particularity

The Alpine shaman Rainer Limpöck describes in his books Myth Untersberg and High and Holy - encounters of people and spirits on Untersberg some phenomena that are scientifically so unexplained. This is how Limpöck thinks this is the ... place where "Middle-earth" begins, where the giant devil with his divine powers has shaped, where healing happens, where the sun shines into the underworld, where heaven and earth connect. ,

Thomas-Eder Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Super highlight! Incredible climb over stairs that lead through tunnels. Built in 1934/35 in the middle of the rock face.

The small Heubergkopf is at 1508 meters and is in the immediate vicinity of the Schellenberger Ice Cave and the Toni-Lenz Hut.
The summit of the small Heubergkopf is adorned with a beautiful cross.
A wonderful place to enjoy the view of the Watzmann massif and the high Göll.

Toni Lenz Mountain Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Rustic mountain hut below the steep walls of the Untersberg. With a fantastic view, you can enjoy first-class Kaiserschmarrn. From the hut, you can reach the famous Schellenberger Ice Cave in around 20 minutes. From there, a path leads over the Mittagsscharte up to the summit plateau and further to the Salzburger Hochthron.

The hut is open daily from May to October.

There are no overnight accommodations at the Toni Lenz Hut - multi-day hikers hike further to the Stöhrhaus or the Zeppezauerhaus.

Adventurous Dopplersteig

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

The Doppler Trail is the adventurous ascent to the vulture. About wooden stairs and stone steps it goes below the rock walls steeply upwards. Some places are very exposed and not for people who are not afraid of heights.
