Hike to Steinhaus

The hike starts at the K-Express mountain station. From here, a wide forest path initially leads gently downhill through dense, green forests. The trail is well prepared and covered with gravel, which makes it suitable for inexperienced hikers or families with prams. There is always the opportunity to stop and enjoy the breathtaking view of the surrounding mountain peaks of the Zillertal Alps.After about half of the trail, the forest opens up to reveal extensive meadows. Alpine cattle often graze here and the colourful mountain flowers are a delight to the eye. The route continues on well-maintained forest paths and finally leads down into the valley to Steinhaus. The valley station of the K-Express awaits you there. There you have the opportunity to fortify yourself in one of the many inns.

This easy hike is perfect for a relaxing day in nature, where you can enjoy the beauty of the Alps to the full. Make sure you wear good footwear and take plenty of water and snacks with you. It is also important to respect nature and not leave any rubbish behind.Hike to Steinhaus
