Hiking in the Wildkogel high-altitude hiking area
Panoramic hiking between the Kitzbühel Alps and the Hohe Tauern National Park
The Wildkogel high-altitude hiking area is one of the most beautiful panoramic hiking areas in the Salzburg region. The Wildkogelbahn in Neukirchen and the Smaragdbahn in Bramberg provide convenient access to this extensive hiking area at over 2,000 metres above sea level.
Leisurely high-altitude walks, family-friendly panoramic trails, cosy alpine huts and numerous vantage points make this high-altitude hiking area an ideal destination for leisurely walkers, families and active mountain holidaymakers.
Experiences for the whole family
The Wildkogel high-altitude hiking area is the ideal starting point for a variety of family adventures. In particular, the slide trail with 10 stainless-steel slides is a hit with young and old alike and combines the experience of nature with physical activity in a unique way.
The 4 km-long Mountaincart track also offers fast-paced fun on the descent from the middle station, whilst the Kogel-Mogel Adventure Arena scores highly with its creative play stations and plenty of space to explore. As part of the “Best Austrian Summer Mountain Railways”, the Wildkogel also stands for certified quality and special experiences on the mountain.

Arche 2.0 – An art installation by Georg Zenz
It was with this thought in mind that the Ark 2.0 came into being – a spectacular wooden artwork. The 26-metre-long and almost six-metre-high sculpture stands in the high-altitude hiking area of the Wildkogel Arena against the impressive backdrop of the Hohe Tauern mountains, inviting visitors to pause, marvel and reflect.
