Kaiserbach valley in winter

The Kaiserbach valley in Kirchdorf in Tirol is a popular excursion destination in summer and winter. In winter there are various possibilities to experience the nature at the Wilder Kaiser. The winter hike in the Kaiserbach valley is the most pleasant way to experience the magic and charms of the Wilder Kaiser up close. The impressive rocky summits tower impressively over the lower Kaiserbach valley at the Fischbachalm and the Griesner Alm.

The Kaiserbach valley is a place for winter hikers, snowshoe walkers and tour skiers. Little by little after Lärchegg you will see further points of the Kaiser, for instance the Mitterkaiser. Soon, after around half an hour, the valley widens. You reach a stopping-off point in the snow-covered pasture - the Fischbachalm (856 m). Shortly after the Fischbachalm, to the left of the Kaiserbach, the memorial chapel commemorates those who perished on the mountains of the Wilder Kaiser. Many names are listed on the brass plaques. From the Fischbachalm, things get steep as you head up to the Griesner Alm at 1024 m. The mainly north-facing rocky outcrops, including Totenkirchl, Fleischbank and Predigtstuhl, tower up vertically seemingly so close to each other - offering a real highlight of the excursion.
