Summer holiday in Scheffau

Situated directly on the south west side of the mighty Wilder Kaiser, Scheffau is a popular starting point for hikes into the natural conservation area of the Kaiser mountains. Mountaineers and climbers also find this an ideal starting point for a tour, no other village being so near to the peaks. On the other side of the valley the gondola is the leisurely way up the Brandstadl to the KaiserWelt, a forest full of adventure.

The distinctive rocky pinnacles of the Wilder Kaiser mountains are the symbol of the Wilder Kaiser region in Tyrol. Hiking paths lead through mountain forests, then alpine meadows and lastly through scree fields interspersed with mountain pine to the base of steep rock faces and deep, narrow passages in the rock.
