Tour description

High-altitude panoramic hike from the glacier to the valley – on the Alexander Enzinger Trail between Kitzsteinhorn and Maiskogel.

This high-altitude Alpine crossing leads from the Alpine Centre on the Kitzsteinhorn via the Alexander Enzinger Trail to the Maiskogel. The trail impresses with its diverse Alpine flora, glacier views and magnificent vistas of Lake Zell. Passing landmarks such as the Krefelder Hut, Stangenhöhe and Schoppachhöhe, the route runs through impressive high mountain scenery. The descent is via the Glocknerblick Hut and further down into the valley, or optionally with the MK Maiskogelbahn cable car directly to the centre of Kaprun. Alternatively, a shorter start at the Langwied station (1,976 m) is also possible.
