Those who want to enjoy peace, quiet, nature and landscape are in good hands on this summit tour. On well-signposted hiking trails, we cross national borders to reach a far-reaching vantage point and at the same time the summit of the Kühgundspitze in the midst of Tyrolean nature. Here, the landscape, culture and tradition of the surrounding villages can be enjoyed.
