Scenic summit hike from Maria Weissenstein to the Weißhorn – with 360° views, alpine charm and spiritual moments. For active hikers and mountain lovers.

Reaching the summit of the Weißhorn is more than just a hike – it’s an experience that touches body, mind, and soul. Starting at the peaceful Maria Weissenstein sanctuary, the trail leads through the serene Kösertal valley, past alpine pastures and pine scrub, and into rugged high-mountain terrain.
At the top, a breathtaking 360° panorama unfolds: from the Dolomites to the Zillertal and Sarntal Alps, the Rosengarten and even as far as the Ortler. It's a view that stirs the soul.
On the way back, a break at the welcoming Neuhütt Alm is the perfect reward before returning to the valley. A hike of contrasts – between alpine wilderness and spiritual quiet, between panoramic views and grounding silence. Perfect for sure-footed mountain lovers seeking depth and inspiration.
