The Bergdoktor practice

Popular filming location for the popular ZDF and ORF series "Der Bergdoktor "
The Bergdoktor house in Ellmau is a magnet for many guests. The Hinterschnabel farm is mentioned for the first time in the village's history in around 1694. In 1985, the former mayor of Ellmau, Johann Leitner, took over his mother's farm. Until the attention of the film crew from Bergdoktor 2007 was drawn to the farm, the living area was empty, also because it had no electricity. Since the Bergdoktor has been operating his practice from there, the former farmhouse rooms have been lovingly renovated and decorated. The meadows and fields of the Hinterschnabel Farm are still being farmed by Hans Leitner.

Hexenwasser Söll Hohe Salve

The Hexenwasser mountain world of adventure in Söll in Tyrol has been thrilling children and adults with gentle natural spectacles for more than ten years. Going native is the motto of all six mountain adventure worlds in the Wilder Kaiser region. And that’s how it goes on Austria's longest barefoot trail in the Hexenwasser Söll Hohe Salve over grass, bark mulch, massaging stones and splashing water, to 60 stopping points which appeal to all your senses. Clever witches and cunning sorcerers give you the right instructions to conjure up a personal memory in the witches’ workshop!

Hohe Salve - the most beautiful mountain in Tirol

The Hohe Salve offers a magnificent view of the Wilder Kaiser at 1,829 meters in the direction of Söll. The panoramic location of one of the most beautiful mountains in Tyrol is already a mountain experience in itself. But those who have the witches' water under them can not be lumped on the summit either. The talking salvo giant welcomes the new arrivals at the mountain station.

KaiserWelt Scheffau

The Games Empire of the KaiserWelt Scheffau on the Brandstadl at 1,650 metres.
In the KaiserWelt on the Brandstadl at Scheffau, a humorous Games Emperor invites all "Krönlinge" to his castle and the unique realm where you can do gymnastics, romp and play to your heart's content. A sporty parcours is at the heart of the KaiserWelt, but also a walk through the enchanted forest is worthwhile, as is the view from the tree houses and immersing yourself creatively in the imperial craft workshop.
