Arrival by public transport
KaiserJet stop “Ellmau Alte Post” or Postbus stop “Ellmau Dorf/Bauhof”. More information at: www.wilderkaiser.info/mobility
Hike from the centre of Ellmau, along trail no. 14, through the "Spatlahner gorge" up to the Wochenbrunner Alm.
You start this hike at the hiking information in the village. The Wochenbrunnweg now runs across the 27-hole golf course, past farmhouses and up through the forest and through the new Spatlahner Gorge. Why "Spatlahner-Klamm(Gorge)"? Spat = late, Lahn = avalanche.
After about one and a half hours you have reached the Wochenbrunn Alm with a large panoramic terrace at 1,085 m. The excursion restaurant is especially popular for families: at the game reserve with deer, roe deer and mountain goats, children get very close to the otherwise shy Alpine animals, while parents enjoy the magnificent view. The Ellmauer Steinkreis, an energetic, self-contained natural force field on the Wilder Kaiser, can be reached in about 20 minutes from the Wochenbrunner Alm.
Tip: If you only want to walk 1 way, you can take the free hiking bus up or down to the Wochenbrunner Alm. You can obtain the current timetable from the Tourist Info or at:
