Description

Follow Kaiserbergstraße between the church and Oberwirt in the direction of the Kaiser Mountains. After about 1,000 meters, the road becomes steep. At the edge of the forest, the incline begins toward the St. Nikolaus Chapel. At the end of this climb, turn left to pay a visit to the chapel. Then, continue along the paved road, which gently ascends, passing small clusters of houses.

From here, you’ll have expansive views of the valley, reaching all the way to the Inn River gorge near Erl. At the intersection near the Ledererwirt, take a left and continue down the paved road. Near a large farm, turn left onto a gravel path. After leaving this path, you’ll walk through the Ebbs settlement, passing Fohlenhof Ebbs, the world center for Haflinger horses, and return to the town center.
