Family hiking in HOCH-IMST

Pilzpfad (Mushroom path)

Over hill and dale, through woods and meadows and even along a small brook, you can discover all kinds of things on this tour. First and foremost, the huge mushrooms that have been skilfully carved out of tree trunks. Information boards reveal more about these silent forest dwellers. Watch out when the coasters whiz past you!

  • Starting point: Hoch-Imst car park (bus stop)
  • Duration: 1.5 hours
  • Length: 4.2 kilometers
  • Highlights: a detour to the reservoir lake or a jump into the cool water of the bathing lake

Jägersteig PATH

This easy and entertaining but extremely varied hike takes about half an hour from the mid-station next to the Untermarkter Alm.

Finally, at the Latschenhütte young and old explorers can enjoy the legendary sweet Hüttenschmarrn (shredded pancakes with raisins and sugar). Return along the same route.

  • Difficulty: easy
  • Starting point: mid-station (uphill ride by lift)
  • Duration: approx. 40 minutes each way 
  • Info: the Jägersteig path is not pram-accessible
  • Highlight: the 3.5 km long ride with the world's longest alpine roller coaster back into the valley
