Wildkogel

Wildkogel is a mountain summit in the Kitzbühel Alps standing at 2,224 meters (7,297 feet), with views that sweep across the Salzach valley and the surrounding peaks. The mountain is accessible from multiple villages through modern lift systems and features a traditional refuge near the top.

The mountain has been sought out by people for centuries, drawing those who lived and worked in these high regions. Over time, paths were built and shelters were constructed to make the heights more accessible to travelers and workers.

The mountain has long been part of local life, with people drawn to its slopes for both work and recreation across generations. Today, visitors experience this connection when they see how the region still revolves around mountain activities and traditions.

The mountain is served by lift systems operating from two nearby villages, making the ascent straightforward and manageable for most visitors. Once at the top, you will find a refuge where you can rest and refuel before exploring further or heading back down.

A surprising feature is the lengthy sledding run that drops down from the mountain, becoming a glowing ribbon of light during winter evenings when fully illuminated. The ride itself takes considerable time, making it an adventure that many visitors prioritize on their visit.
