Schattberg

Schattberg is a mountain summit in the Kitzbühel Alps with three distinct peaks. The area features multiple marked hiking trails and is accessed by a modern cableway for those who prefer not to walk.

A cableway was first built here in 1960 and represented advanced engineering for its time. The mountain has long served as a popular destination for hikers and climbers in the region.

The mountain huts scattered on the slopes serve local food and show how climbers traditionally rest and meet. These places are gathering spots where visitors experience how mountain hospitality has worked for generations.

The mountain is easy to access whether you prefer to hike or take the cableway. Visitors should be prepared for changing weather conditions and wear proper footwear for the terrain.

Two periods of the year see the most climbing activity and show a pattern across seasons. This reveals how the mountain attracts visitors regardless of which time of year they climb.
