Description

Enjoy an incredible 2 days hike from Kufstein to Walchsee, through the Kaiser Mountain Range Nature Preserve in Tyrol, Austria.

This program is an amazing opportunity to explore this fantastic area. And if you come during the summer, we’ll be able to swim in dazzling alpine lakes. But regardless of the season you wish to visit, we’ll encounter paths in excellent conditions that cross beautiful meadows and lush vegetation.

Also, on our first day, we’ll visit an enchanting mountain shelter, Stripsenjochhaus Lodge, with all the amenities necessary for a pleasant stay. This lovely hut offers hypnotizing views of Kaiser Range, Loferer, Leogang, Steinberge and Pending Peaks, as well as the Bavarian Foothills of the Alps.

Then, on our second day of adventures we’ll get to appreciate historical sceneries as we tour the Hochalm Alpine Pasture Hut, ancient buildings that have been preserved over the centuries. During our hike we will be delighted with meadows covered with wildflowers, Alpine pastures and rock faces. Finally, on this day we’ll visit the Walchsee Lake, with water so pure we can actually drink it. So, it’s an experience you cannot miss!

Please note, we’ll be hiking around 5 to 6 hours each day, with an elevation of 1,600 meters at the highest point. Therefore, participants must have a good fitness level. But, you don’t need any previous experience on this type of trips. Also, this is a private trip. Thus, you’ll get a guide exclusively for you and your group. And you won’t have to share your time with any unknown guests.

So if you are up for this hiking adventure, don’t hesitate and send us a request. One of our guides will have the pleasure to show you this Austrian paradise.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
