Hochwechsel

Highlight • Summit

At 1,743 meters, you can enjoy a wonderful view of the Wechsel area. Many hiking tours start from up here and there are other seasonally managed huts besides the Wetterkogelhaus directly at the summit. In the Wetterkogelhaus, you can not only strengthen yourself, but also stay in shared rooms and in the mattress camp. For e-bikes in the guest room five sockets are available for loading.

Cozy family business at 1,372 meters above sea level, embedded in a wooded area with a wonderful view. The valley station of the Arabichl lift is also located here, direct access to the changing panoramic trail is possible.
