Guided Panoramic Hike with Jennifer

Together, we’ll explore the breathtaking mountain scenery surrounding our hotel—from scenic summit hikes to leisurely walks with stops at rustic alpine huts. Look forward to varied hikes, stunning views, and special moments in nature in the mountains.

Thursday Tour: Saukarkopf

Together with our hiking guide, we’ll set out from the Vorderstadluck parking lot, crossing lush alpine meadows and passing the Röschenbergalm on our way up to the Saukaralm, the highest alpine pasture in the Großarl Valley. From there, a scenic trail leads us on to the Saukarkopf—once at the top, an impressive panoramic view of the Hohe Tauern, the Hochkönig, and the Tennen and Hagen Mountains awaits us.

After a well-deserved break at the summit, the descent takes us back to the Saukaralm and on to the Gerstreitalm, where we can enjoy a leisurely meal featuring regional delicacies. We then hike back together to our starting point. We begin at the parking lot near the beautiful Aualm in Großarl. From there, this varied mountain hike first takes us to the Liechtensteinkopf and on via the Aukopf to the striking Schuhflicker. Along the scenic ridge, impressive panoramic views of the Hohe Tauern and the Hochkönig massif unfold before us. After reaching the summit, the trail leads to the idyllically situated Schuhflickersee, which is the perfect spot for a short rest. The tour combines scenic peaks, alpine landscapes, and a picturesque mountain lake into a varied mountain experience.
