    Hiking

    The Kaiserstein (2,061 m) marks one of the most famous points on the Schneeberg. A memorial plaque commemorates the ascents of Emperor Franz I in 1805 and 1807. From the summit, you can enjoy an impressive panorama of the Rax, the Vienna Basin, and, on a clear day, all the way to the Hohe Tauern—a place steeped in history and offering breathtaking views.

    Hiking

    The name of the Kaiserstein comes from the visit of Emperor Franz Joseph I, who explored the area on June 18, 1902.
