Maiskogel children’s hike

If you don’t want it to be too strenuous with the kids or you only want to spend a few hours on the mountain, the Maiskogel is a good choice:

  • Baby carriage & toddler friendly
  • Discovery forest next to the forest path
  • Not too steep and not too far

We like to take the cable car to the mountain station (included in the Zell am See-Kaprun Summer Card ). From there we hike comfortably on the relatively flat path to the Unterbergalm (open until the beginning of September).

The path leads through a forest where there is always something to discover to the left and right. Adults will probably need 15 minutes, with small children it can take longer …

At the Unterbergalm you can enjoy a delicious buttermilk and the alpine classics cheese and bacon bread as well as a Brettljausn, all homemade! The Alm itself is quite rustic, but very child-friendly, with a sandpit and toys. And the view is really great! 😍⛰️☀️

And depending on the season, you may also find a few cranberries (wild blueberries) in the forest on the way back, for a nice blue tongue 😜🫐

If you are not yet exhausted and without a baby carriage, you can start the
Maiskogel hut circuit
and walk back via the Glocknerblickhütte.
Have fun!
