Hiking with kids has to be one thing above all else: exciting and full of variety. That\u2019s exactly why so many families spend their summer vacations with us at the Berg Genuss Hotel Augarten in Neustift in the Stubai Valley. <\/p>\n
As a hotel specializing in hiking, we know the most beautiful trails for all ages and are happy to share our personal recommendations with you. Right on our doorstep, you\u2019ll find family-friendly hiking trails, exciting nature experiences, and plenty of adventure. <\/p>\n
In this blog post, we\u2019ve put together a list of our five favorite family hikes for you. Look forward to the Treehouse Trail with its lovingly designed treehouses, the Disc Trail with its fun play stations, the Slide Park at Schlick 2000 with its 7 slides (each between 20 and 48 meters long), the diverse Serlespark in Mieders, and the Wilde Wasser Trail with its extraordinary waterfall (perfect for hot days). <\/p>\n
Of course, we\u2019ll also provide you with plenty of hiking extras to enhance your vacation: a free STUBAI.SUPER.CARD, free hiking poles and backpacks (subject to availability), personalized hiking tips, and a hearty breakfast to get your day off to the perfect start.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
The new Treehouse Trail between the midway station of the Schlick 2000 and the Alpengasthof Verg\u00f6r is perfect for hiking with children.
\nThe trail is easy to walk, stroller-friendly, and can be completed in about an hour.<\/p>\n
Along the way, several treehouses invite you to play, climb, run around, explore, and relax.
\nAt the end of the hike, you can satisfy your hunger and thirst at the Verg\u00f6r snack bar and then take a leisurely walk back along the forest trail to the Schlick 2000 valley station.
\nMore athletic hikers can hike all the way to Neustift via the new Sunnenseit\u2019n Trail and the suspension bridge.<\/p>\n

Take the Schlick 2000 gondola to the Froneben midway station, and from there, take the Galtbergbahn. Take a leisurely hike to Panoramasee; the famous Scheibenweg trail starts there.
\nChildren race each other with a wooden disc. The wooden disc rolls along the grooves at the side of the path and must be placed in specially designed stations. <\/p>\n
IMPORTANT:<\/strong> ***<\/p>\n The slide trail at Schlick 2000 is one of those outings that families especially love to talk about. Instead of just hiking downhill, seven stainless-steel slides along the trail provide plenty of fun. This turns a leisurely family hike into a little adventure where it\u2019s not just the kids who love to slide down more than once. <\/p>\n The trail starts at the Galtbergbahn mountain station and follows hiking trails No. 10 and No. 9 to the mid-station. You can easily rent the appropriate sliding mats at the valley station and pick them up at the mountain station. <\/p>\n As a hotel specializing in hiking, we especially recommend the Rutschenweg to families with children. We\u2019d also be happy to suggest ways to combine this hike with other beautiful trails or a cozy stop for refreshments. Just ask at the front desk of our Berg Genuss Hotel.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div> There are numerous hikes suitable for children starting at the Serlesbahnen Mieders mountain station\u2014with just one catch: it\u2019s hard to get the kids to leave the mountain station! The best way to entice the kids to go on a hike to the Ochsenh\u00fctte or take a train ride to Maria Waldrast is with the giant slide above the mountain station. ***<\/p>\n There are hikes with spine-tingling moments that thrill children just as much as they do adults. For us, the first stage of the Wilde Wasser Weg is definitely one of them. <\/p>\n This family-friendly trail leads through the impressive Ruetz Cataract to the Grawa Waterfall\u2014the widest waterfall in the Eastern Alps. Along the way, roaring streams, small waterfalls, exciting viewing platforms, and cozy rest areas ensure that you\u2019ll never get bored. The rustic Tschangelair Alm and the Grawa Alm also invite you to stop for a relaxing break. <\/p>\n The best part: The first stage is stroller-friendly and well-suited for older hikers as well. This way, everyone can truly experience the impressive power of the water up close. <\/p>\n As a hotel specializing in hiking, we especially recommend this tour to families. We\u2019d be happy to share our personal tips for the perfect day of hiking and provide you with plenty of hiking extras. <\/p>\n
\nThe tickets for the Scheibenweg trail are only available at the valley station. Be sure to pick them up right at the start.
\nIf you\u2019d like to go on a longer hike, you should set aside a second day to explore the hiking paradise of Schlick 2000 (take the gondola directly to the Kreuzjoch mountain station). <\/p>\n\n
