The Wilder Kaiser region is a jewel in Tyrol, known for its breathtaking natural beauty and diverse leisure activities. The heart of the region is formed by the Kaiser towns of Söll, Ellmau, Going and Scheffau, each with its own charm and character. These places are ideal starting points for mountain experiences and offer a wide range of accommodation, from cozy inns to luxurious hotels, mostly with a breathtaking view of the imposing Kaiser Mountains.
Ellmau delights visitors with its idyllic landscape and direct access to the ski slopes in winter and hiking trails in summer. Söll is known for its lively nightlife and excellent restaurants. Going impresses with its authentic Tyrolean village character. Scheffau, known for its sustainable tourism initiatives, is the ideal place for nature lovers and those looking for peace and relaxation in nature.
The highlight of the region is the Kaiser Mountains, with the Wilder Kaiser as a prominent feature. The Kaiser Mountains represent one of the most impressive mountain backdrops in Austria. The Wilder Kaiser itself, with its steep rock faces and deep gorges, is a paradise for climbers and mountaineers who seek challenges and adventure. But hikers and families also find their fulfillment in the gentler parts of the mountains, such as the wide alpine meadows and dense forests.
Another highlight of the region is the Lake Hintersteiner See, a crystal-clear mountain lake that invites you to take refreshing bathing trips in the summer months. Surrounded by mountains, the lake offers a picturesque backdrop for hikes and relaxing days in untouched nature. There is a bathing establishment and hiking trails on the lake.
