Summer
Sunny Outlook
LIVE-CAM Neukirchen

In the midst of the Kitzbühel Alps and in the heart of Salzburg’s Hohe Tauern National Park: This location alone says so much about what awaits vacationers in the Wildkogel “Holiday Arena” during the summer. All around the Wildkogel, the most beautiful lookout mountain in the Oberpinzgau, the tallest giants of the Austrian Alps rise skywards: the Grossvenediger, the Grossglockner and the beautiful peaks of the Hohe Tauern National Park – with a total area of 1,800 km² , the biggest nature sanctuary in all of Central Europe.

With its WildkogelAktiv summertime programme, Neukirchen offers a broad range of activities on six days a week – both for the “little dudes” and families, as well as for the athletically inclined, wellness fans, casual hikers, mountaineers, adventurers and mountain bikers.
   
  Hiking and Trekking


Out into the countryside and inject new motion into your life – that is what a holiday in the Wildkogel “Vacation Arena”, probably the most beautiful open-air fitness studio anywhere in Austria, is all about. Hiking is undoubtedly the best way of exploring the mountains. Especially popular with families are the “high trails”, which wend their way through the Kitzbühel Alps and the Hohe Tauern mountains. The hiking trails on the Wildkogel promise superb views out over the Hohe Tauern National Park. If you prefer to get things off to a more leisurely start, why not hop aboard the cabin lift for a relaxing ride up into the mountains.
 
  Mountaineering


If you are someone who yearns to head ever onwards and upwards, then you are definitely on the right track here in the Hohe Tauern National Park region. Like Jacob’s ladder, the National Park “Haute Route” leads high into the mountain peaks, revealing views out over endless expanses. Out and about equipped with a rope and pick, in the safe company of an experienced mountain guide, you will reach nine 3,000-metre peaks in the course of your six-day tour. You will spend two nights in Neukirchen and five at elevation in hikers’ shelters. It goes virtually without saying that, for an extraordinary high-alpine adventure such as this, good physical conditioning is a must. The reward for your efforts: the camaraderie that only mountaineers truly understand and the unique nature experience of the high peaks!
 
  Cycling & Mountain
Biking


Neukirchen and Bramberg are both communities on the Tauern Bike Trail, offering pleasant bike paths for the whole family. But mountain bikers, too, aren’t in the slightest short-changed either!

  Alpine Wellness




Wellness Hikes in the Hohe Tauern National Park holiday region. A time to unwind and recharge your batteries! Step by step, with easy motions and targeted exercises, you will rediscover an awareness for your own body. You will be able to shake the burdens and aches and pains of daily life from your shoulders. You’ll gently acclimatise to the alpine elevations (which, incidentally, do wonders when it comes to burning off excess body fat!) and supply your body with nutrient-rich foods. Equipped with lightweight trekking or running shoes, but minus the weight of heavy luggage, it’s now time to enjoy the most healthful hike of your life.
