Description

The hike begins at Parking Lot P14 "Katzenkopf" and initially follows the road to the right. After a few meters, the trail turns left into the forest. Here, the well-maintained forest path ascends gently through the woods. Step by step, you make your way through the forest until you reach the Katzenkopfhütte — a cozy hut inviting you to take a break.

For those who prefer an easier ascent, the mountain railway offers a direct route to the Katzenkopf. Additionally, the area features a bike park with various dynamic trails. Beyond the bike park, there are other attractions such as a playground for young adventurers and an exciting disc golf course with multiple holes. This versatile mountain destination offers something for hiking and biking enthusiasts, as well as families.
