The fastest route to this destination

At the waterfall trail in the Lofer Almwelt

You can reach airy heights here very relaxed by gondola; there is plenty to experience and discover at the top. Countless hiking trails wait to be explored with a sensational panorama, while an adventure playground at the mountain station is the highlight for children.

The Lofer Almwelt is a wonderful excursion destination for all families. Along the waterfall trail you either go up from the middle station or very comfortably – from the mountain station towards Gasthaus Loderbichl.

The absolute highlight for children is the adventure playground, which offers a viewing tower, flying fox, water wheel, giant slide and much more.

Along fragrant alpine meadows, accompanied by cowbells and the sound of water, the path goes about 4 km downhill. Along the way, there are several display boards, play and puzzle stations where you can learn a lot of interesting facts about life on the alp.
