Fairy Tale Trail Rittisberg

Tour description

The fairy tale trail on the Rittisberg is an enchanting hike for the whole family. You hike along a newly created forest path from the valley station of the Rittisbergbahn to the Rittisstadl and high-altitude playground. In between, various fairy tale stations promise great entertainment. Younger guests should take a good look at the stations - because a very special surprise awaits them at the Rittisstadl.

The path is easily accessible with a pram down the valley.

Map, elevation profile & further information

From the Rittisstadl you walk downhill in an easterly direction past the high-altitude playground - with a wonderful view of the Ramsau plateau in front of you. The path turns left and then south via a right-hand bend. Shortly afterwards you join a road. Follow this for about 300 m.
