What to expect

The Hochfelln is a 1674 m high mountain in the Chiemgauer Alpen, located south of Bergen and west of Ruhpolding.

The Hochfelln is part of a long ridge that stretches from the Urschlauer Achen in the Ruhpolding valley to the Haßlberg, Poschinger Wand, and Strohnschneid. The mountain is composed of Triassic and Jurassic dolomites and limestones, and its slopes are home to several streams and rivers, including the Weißachen and the Weiße Traun

This family's experience:

Activities: We took the Hochfelln-Seilbahn to the top of the mountain. The view from the top was amazing, but unfortunately for us, it was foggy that day. We then hiked down to the middle station and from there, we walked down to the valley station. The kids enjoyed the hike, which was easy but not boring

Highlights: The amazing views were supposed to be the highlight, but we didn't have any views that day due to the fog. Despite this, the hike down was a great experience, the kids enjoyed it. The walk was just right for a family hike, not too long or difficult ✨
