The Salvensee is located south of the Hohe Salve at 1575 m. In winter it supplies the water for snowmaking on the ski slopes. In summer you can take a break here during a tour and enjoy the panorama.

The Brechhorn, at 2,032 m, is one of the most popular hiking destinations around Westendorf. The many ways to celebrate the summit victory make it interesting not only for sporty people. The summit can be reached with the help of the cable car, or you can start directly in the valley.
