Guided hike from the Zillertal Alps Nature Park

Discover the treasures of the valley floor

From the Mayrhofen train station we hike a short distance in the direction of Schwendau and then turn onto the Hippach-Schwendau forest trail. After about 25 minutes we reach the valley station of the Horbergbahn. Our ascent begins at the old Zimmerhäusl mill, the only one of eight mills to have been spared by the floods of 1946. Now the partly stony and rooty path begins, which leads us through mixed forest past the "Wilde Mann Schrofen". Before we reach the area of the waterfall, there is still a narrow passage to master. We can then enjoy the impressive waterfall up close. As an extra we climb to the lookout point with a great view of the valley. From the station Ramsau-Hippach we take the Zillertalbahn back to the starting point.
