Juppi Magic Forest family circular hike
Playful circular route on the mountain for the whole family - stroller friendly too!
The excursion to the Juppi Magic Forest starts with the ride on the 8-person gondola Reitherkogelbahn (closed on Wednesdays). Right at the mountain station there is a great playground with a slide and trampoline as well as a small buffet. Get the Alpbachtal treasure map there so you can enter the solutions to the forest riddle.
It's best to start directly with the circular hike. This leads past Nisslhof on the left and after about 10 minutes you reach a junction. Turn right into the forest here and after a few meters you are right in the middle of the magic village. To the right of the forest path are the enchanting play stations among the trees. The kids can really let off steam here and let their imagination run free. You will find a magic kitchen, the magic council, the forest tavern, the farm, the workshop, and the sought-after fire station. There are also plenty of rest benches with tables.
A few meters further the hiking trail leads towards Fürstenhof. Here awaits a petting zoo and Juppi's workbench (part of the Alpbachtal family program).
The path now leads about 15 minutes downhill to the Fürstenhof farm and then right along the panorama trail towards Hinterkogel. At the fork turn right into the forest and after a few meters you reach the next playground with exciting stations like adventure bridge, observation tower, magic fountain, ghost moor, a flying fox, and more. There is also a toilet and snack vending machine there.
If the children can tear themselves away, follow the path further and then turn right into the forest path. Finally, follow the signs for about 10 minutes to the witch's house, the viewing platform (TIP - wonderful view of the Alpbachtal and Inn valley), and the fun water play.
Then it takes another 10 minutes back to the mountain station.
The kids can also solve a great forest riddle together with the adults along the way.
Right at the valley station is the Liftcafé Heisn with a playground and sun terrace!
