Sonnenalm Tour- our most popular tour

The ascent to the Sonnenalm - as well as the descent - can be done on different trails with varying levels of difficulty.
One of the other reasons may be the Sonnenalm (1.300 m) with its host, Gerhard, who spoils his guests with regional treats and always makes for a good fun time.
