Waidring

Waidring is a mountain municipality in Kitzbühel district that spreads across 63 square kilometers at 778 meters elevation. The village features traditional farmhouses with wooden construction and sits near where Tirol, Salzburg, and Bavaria meet.

The settlement was first recorded in 1147 under the name Waitheringen and grew into an important community. Its location at the borders of three regions made it significant in Tyrolean history.

The village keeps alpine traditions alive through celebrations and customs that happen throughout the year. Local religious observances and regional festivals shape how the community gathers and marks time together.

Steinplatte is the local ski area with slopes for different ability levels and a cable car connecting the valley to the mountain. The lift system runs in winter for skiing and in summer to reach hiking trails at higher elevations.

The Haslerschlucht gorge near Reiterdörfl contains a natural waterfall system that few visitors discover on their own. Walking trails wind through the ravine and connect these cascades to the surrounding mountain landscape.
