Mystical BergWaldWeg
FOLLOW THE TRACES OF ACIENT LEGENDS IN ZILLERTAL
Where landscape and myth converge, your journey begins in the mountains of Mayrhofen. Zillertal legends – shaped by nature, people, and mysterious forces – accompany you step by step along the BergWaldWeg on Mount Penken, guiding you through the alpine scenery.
From Mount Penken, you hike through forests and along scenic trails to Finkenberg – passing legendary sites and immersed in stories of spirits, snakes, and devils. A trail that leads not only through nature, but deep into imagination – diverse, mystical, and perfect for the whole family. (4.7 km | approx. 1.5 hours)
Our tip: With the Penkenjoch Loop Hike Ticket, you can take the Finkenberg gondolas comfortably up to Penkenjoch and return to your starting point via the Panorama Circular Trail. Of course, you can also do the hike in the opposite direction.
