Activities

Summer.

Nature, exercise & sports are right on the doorstep at Chalet Geigelstein: hiking & running, cycling & biking, swimming or fishing in the river, it's just a few steps to all of this.

From the Almgangerl to the ambitious mountain tour - there is something for every level. On foot, with mountain bike, racing bike or e-bike - rustic inns and alpine pastures tempt you with a hearty snack.

It is only a stone's throw to the climbing forest at the Maserer Pass. This is the starting point for forest adventure tours with abseiling, via ferrata tours, nightly torchlight hikes or the adventurous rope ride in the "Giant Swing".

On board a glider or paraglider you can glide almost silently over the fantastic landscape and enjoy the region from a bird's eye view.

When it gets really hot, the Wössner Lake or the enchanted gravel banks along the Tiroler Ache provide refreshment. The Bavarian sea - the Chiemsee - with the Fraueninsel and the Herreninsel, with the King Ludwig Castle, are worth a trip in any case.
