Ready for a real summit moment?

From the Alpengasthof Rossmoos, you start a tour that takes you to one of the distinctive lookout mountains in the Alpbachtal: the Gratlspitze. The path there demands a bit more stamina and sure-footedness, but rewards you with a varied ascent.

As you gain altitude, the terrain becomes more alpine and the views more expansive. At the summit of the Gratlspitze, a stunning 360° panorama opens up over the Kitzbühel Alps and the Inn Valley. From here, in good visibility, over 26 church towers and more than 800 mountain peaks can be seen.

After the summit experience, the descent follows towards Holzalm. Here the pace slows, the landscape softens – ideal for reflecting on the day's impressions.

A tour for everyone seeking the classic mountain experience: ascent, summit, view, and a cozy stop at the end.
