Hiking with children
Rohrmooserhof family hiking tips:
Holidays on the mountains should be fun for every member of the family. That is why there are also hikes for toddlers. We have compiled some children’s hikes for you:
Riesach waterfalls

The tour to the roaring waterfalls starts in Untertal, from the Riesach waterfall car park. You must not miss seeing this spectacle because your children will be completely stunned. Tip: on the way, you pass the Waldhäusl Alp with an adventure playground, animals, boat and raft trips on the Waldhäusl lake.
Mushroom learning path
Tour time:
1 hour
The
mushroom path leads through the forest, from the Hochwurzen cable car lower

learn a lot about the different mushrooms in the area. Tip: this hiking path is
a good “wellies hike” on rainy days.
