Summer holidays in the Alps are extraordinary

Summer holidays in the Alps are hugely popular for a reason. Hiking in Scheffau is one of the activities for which the holiday region is known for far beyond the borders. Many hikers spend their holidays at the Wilder Kaiser and set out on demanding summit tours, light Alpine hikes, or extended walks. Summer holidays in the Alps are varied and beautiful. The "Österreichisches Wandergütesiegel” award was given to the Wilder Kaiser holiday region for quality assurance for hiking. The Wilder Kaiser region was the first Alpine region in Austria to receive such an award. By the way: Das Alpin, your hotel at the Wilder Kaiser, fulfils all criteria of a hiking establishment and has been an official hiking hotel near Kitzbühel since 2013.
