Hiking region Feuerkogel

The Feuerkogel, Upper Austria’s most sun-blessed point, invites you to enjoy an unforgettable experience in the heart of the Salzkammergut, with an amazing 360 degree panoramic view to Dachstein and the lake region, cosy Alpine lodges and lots of sporting opportunities!

Hiking region FeuerkogeL

It's not just families with children and leisure hikers who will find many different hiking options for every level of difficulty on the Feuerkogel. Even particularly sporty mountain enthusiasts will get their money's worth on the Feuerkogel.

We recommend a trip to the Alberfeldkogel viewing platform and the impressive European Cross (walking time approx. 1 hour, suitable for children), or a longer tour to the Großer Höllkogel or to the Riederhütte. From there you can continue the mountain tour and cross the impressive Höllengebirge.

Pure thrill!

The Feuerkogel offers great opportunities for all adventurous mountain lovers, who prefer the adrenaline kick - but nothing for weak nerves ;-)

For hikers, mountain enthusiasts or guests who aren’t so taken with exercise can make a stop-off in one of the mountain restaurants and be indulged with typical hospitality and regional delights!
