Gaisberg

Gaisberg is a mountain in the Kitzbühel Alps that rises above forested slopes and open alpine meadows. The summit area accommodates several hiking routes of varying difficulty, accessible from different starting points around the region.

The mountain was developed as a destination for hikers and nature lovers beginning in the early 1900s. Trail development over the decades solidified its role in the region's recreational culture.

The Bärstätt cross at the summit represents local religious traditions and serves as a gathering point for community events throughout the year.

Trails are well marked and suited to various fitness levels, though plan for several hours to reach the summit. Sturdy footwear and weather protection are recommended, as conditions can change quickly at higher elevations.

On clear days, the summit offers extended views across multiple connected Alpine ridges that reveal the geography of the entire range. Many hikers use this vantage point to understand how the different peaks relate to each other across the landscape.
