Kelchalm Self-Service Refreshment Bench

Highlight • Rest Area

The Kelchalm has set up a very nice place for a break here. Anyone who undertakes the steep climb to the Bochumer Hütte will be happy if they can get a cool drink at this point with a magnificent view. A bench invites you to relax and lemonades and beer are available in a cool box. The box contains a trustworthy cash register in the shape of a piggy bank. Please feed this one too!
Unfortunately there was no bottle opener, but that worked. The square is beautifully decorated with Tibetan prayer flags. Thanks for this nice idea!

Hochtorsee

Highlight • Lake

The Torsee is located at around 2,000 meters, idyllically nestled in the alpine landscape of the Kitzbühel Alps, not far from the "Tor" pass between Tristkogel and Staffkogel. Surrounded by gentle grassy slopes and rock formations, the small, clear mountain lake invites you to a refreshing break. Especially in summer, it is a quiet, rewarding stopover on a hike through the valley head of Saalbach-Hinterglemm.

The gate is the pass between Gamshag and Tristkogel at a height of around 1,900 metres and is easily accessible via the Kelchalmweg. From the gate there is a beautiful view of the Kaiser Mountains and it is the crossing towards Hinterglemm.

October 16, 2022,4 Gipfeltour mit Blick auf den Wilden Kaiser 🇦🇹 Gamshag & Teufelssprung &kleiner Schütz & Schützkogel ⛰⛰⛰⛰🍂🍁
Actually we wanted to climb the Tristkogel today. But because girls trips are always creative and flexible in planning and execution, we changed our mind - and this beautiful 4 peaks with lots of sun ☀️ came out.

Stunning day in the sunshine hiking four peaks in the mountains above Kitzbuhel. It was a hot and stiff but gorgeous trek up Gamshag, Shutskgel and Triskogel but the views (and some new horse friends) were more than worth it. Lovely hut on the way down for a beer, too!
