Slow train ride on the Tauplitzalm

Tauplitz

Slow train and panoramic rides over the lake plateau Tauplitzalm.

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

With the leisurely train, it is possible to visit three of the six mountain lakes. The ride takes about an hour. During this ride, there is a complete view of the surrounding mountain landscape. (Totes Gebirge, Grimming, Dachstein, Stoderzinken, Schladminger Tauern, Gesäuse,...)

Particularly fascinating are the unique variety of flowers from June to August.
From mid-June to early/mid-September, the grazing livestock can also be admired.
