From the mountain to the valley - hike across the summer "ski slopes" at Hauser Kaibling.

If you want to experience the ski slopes of Hauser Kaibling in summer, this is the right hike for you. The ascent is made - as in winter - by cable car/chair lift. Downhill is by foot, with pleasure also with 2 (hiking) sticks. The hiking trails lead up to the Scharlinger again and again over the winter ski slopes, and you can also pass some of the lift poles.Note: Please stay on the signposted paths. Do not climb over pasture or sheep fences or even trample them down. Gates that have to be opened, please also close them reliably. You will cross several meadows that are mowed or where cattle are grazing. Therefore please do not walk through the high grass, but stay at the edge of the areas. Thanks a lot!
