Slow train ride on the Tauplitzalm

Tauplitz

Slow train and panoramic rides over the lake plateau Tauplitzalm.

The hotel's own Leisure Train is a fun for kids and relaxation for the parents. The ride over the high plateau of the Tauplitzalm is great comfort for those who do not like to walk and a blessing for those who cannot hike for health reasons.

With the Leisure Train, it is possible to visit three of the six mountain lakes. The ride lasts about one hour. On this ride, the entire view of the surrounding mountain world opens up. (Totes Gebirge, Grimming, Dachstein, Stoderzinken, Schladminger Tauern, Gesäuse,...)

Especially fascinating in the months of June to August is the unique variety of flowers. 
From mid-June to early/mid-September, the grazing cattle can also be admired.
