Hiking

At the Schwalbenwand summit cross, you'll reach one of the most beautiful vantage points above Maishofen. From here, the view extends far over Lake Zell, the Hohe Tauern, and all the way to the Kitzsteinhorn. The cross marks the highest point of the tour and invites you to take a well-deserved rest with a magnificent panorama.
