Hiking
Do you want an unobstructed view of as many mountains as possible, but don't want to just sit around twiddling your thumbs? Then you should hike the Saalachtal High Trail from the Asitz to the Biberg. It's about 13 kilometers long, easy to walk, and perfect for a family hike.
Starting at the Asitz in Leogang, you'll hike along the ridges of grassy mountains. You can let your gaze wander over the Steinberge, the Steinernes Meer, and the main Alpine ridge. The trail leads you past a natural cinema and through wonderful, protected natural areas. Don't forget to pack plenty of drinks and a small picnic, as there are no places to eat or drink between the start and finish.
You can take the Asitz cable car up to the top, and you can hike down from the Biberg or take the summer toboggan run. Food and drink are available at the beginning of the hike at the Asitz or at the end at the Biberg, either at the Biberg mountain inn or the Huggenberg mountain inn.
