On the ascent to the Zipfelsalpe, one passes through a charming wooded area with beech and spruce trees far above the Zipfelsfälle waterfalls; beautiful views of the Hintersteiner mountains around the Daumen peak as far as the Hochvogel mountain.

Today we went to the Zipfelsbach Falls with the whole family. There the paths separate and the younger ones hiked on to the Zipfelsalpe. The journey was strenuous but worth it. The tour was also doable for the little ones at 5 years old.
