September Hiking Week with our Guide Christian Rietzler

Autumn is the season of change, when the trees relinquish their coloured leaves over to the wind and focus their energy on their roots. Just like nature utilises this season to ground itself, we are given an opportunity for realignment as we discover the bright and colourful woods and lofty heights. Experience a new sense of stability and belonging as you let go of what no longer serves you and expand your outlook to incorporate what really counts. Accompany SHF hiking guide Christian and let him guide you to breath-taking landmarks, hidden spots of beauty, and the sunny side of life. Daily guided hikes and finest SHF Culinary Autumn highlights combine to create your very own personal summit experience.

Details about the hiking tours with SHF hiking guide Christian:

 

Sunday: Aifner Spitze hike

The „Hohe Aifner Spitze“ is regarded as one of the most beautiful panoramic mountains in our region.

We are going with our hotel bus to the nature park “Kaunergrat”. At the Aifner Alm our 2,5 hours ascent begins. In total there are approx. 700 elevation gain which have to be mastered. At first we are going through woods and alpine meadows and later quite stony and steep to the summit. The path is designated as a moderately difficult mountain path. With a wonderful view and a good snack the effort of the ascent is soon forgotten. The descent will depend on your physical condition and surefootedness. Back on the alp we will finish the tour with a refreshing drink.

Start: 09:00 am | Return: approx. 4:00 pm | Walking time: 4,5 hours

 

Monday: Leisurely hike to Gasslbauer including a tasting of the farm’s specialties

Accompany SHF hiking guide Christian on a relaxed hike to Gasslbauer in Ladis, a trusted provider of milk, yogurt, and cheese to Schlosshotel Fiss. Upon arrival, farm owner Hans Pittl gives you a brief tour, offering insights into daily life on the farm. Following the tour, you have the opportunity to savor the farm's products right there. Meanwhile, the children can enjoy playing on the farm. After the tasting, you will return to Schlosshotel Fiss via cable car or a hotel transfer.

 

 

Tuesday: Waterfall hike | Anton-Renk-Hütte

You can already see it from the Schlosshotel Fiss. Many guests have asked about directions, but only a few have been courageous enough to embark on the journey. Seize the opportunity to witness the captivating "Falling Brook" waterfalls up close by joining our guided hiking excursion. We will travel to Fendels using the hotel bus, and once everyone has obtained their chairlift tickets, we will begin the ascent. Riding the lift and hiking via Fendler Alm to Zirmköpfl, we will continue our trek towards the waterfalls, traversing the steep summer pastures shared by local cattle, sheep, and goats. At the "Anton Renk Hütte," we will pause for a break and enjoy our snacks. The majestic backdrop of the Glockturmkamm mountains, the precipitous rocky slopes, and the awe-inspiring waterfall will captivate us, making time seem to fly. However, we must return. On our way back, we will have the chance to rest at an alpine hut with a stunning view of the Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis region. The lift is conveniently located nearby.

 

Wednesday: Lake Spinnsee & Urgtal Valley

The “Urgtal” presents itself as pure nature. A valley that has retained its originality. Our tour of discovery begins at the Schönjoch. Along the "Spinseeweg" we first enjoy the view down to the three villages of Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis. Later the narrow path becomes a little more demanding, not because of its steepness, but because of the scree fields that have to be crossed. We continue hiking until we reach the "Urgbach". From there we have a strong ascent of about 40 minutes. before. At the upper Spinsee we enjoy the snack and the alpine landscape. Well strengthened, it goes down to the bottom of the valley. The last part takes us past "Urgsee" to the Almbahn.

Start: 09:00 a.m. | Return: approx. 03:30 p.m. | Walking time: approx. 5 hours

 

Friday: Mountain tour Madatschkopf in Kaunertal Valley

We embark on our hotel bus that takes us to Verpeilalm. Following a pleasant 45-minute walk, we arrive at the inviting mountain hut Verpeilhütte. However, we save our visit to this charming place for our return journey. We still have approximately 800 meters of climbing ahead of us from this point. As we ascend, we take delight in the enchanting surroundings adorned with stone pines, alpine roses, and cranberry bushes. As we approach the summit, the terrain becomes noticeably rockier, a clear indicator of the higher altitude. After a refreshing break accompanied by a snack and a breathtaking panoramic view, we retrace our steps along the same path. When we reach the Verpeil hut, we pause for a moment to reflect on our achievement and feel a sense of pride. From there, it's merely a pleasant walk to the car park.

Start: 8:30 am | Return: approx. 4:30 pm | Walking time: 5-6 hours with 1000m of elevation

From 2.111,- in the Single Supreme category for 1 adult for 7 nights
