The hike starts at the KaiserWelt Scheffau, a large play area with adventure forest at an altitude of 1.650 m. It is located directly at the mountain station of the Brandstadlbahn cable car in Scheffau and the Brandstadl mountain restaurant. After the ascent with the gondola and a tour through the KaiserWelt, follow the signs to Hochbrixen and Filzalmsee (path no.99). On the way there you pass the Tanzbodenalm, Jochstub’n & Brantlalm. From Filzalmsee and the "RiesenWelt", continue on hiking trail no.99 to Hexenwasser Hochsöll. There are several places to stop for refreshments and many adventure stations invite you to linger and cool off. From Hexenwasser you can take the gondola down to the valley and take the free hiking bus KaiserJet back to Scheffau to the starting point.
Tip: To shorten the downhill route, you can also use the Zinsbergbahn cable car to get from the Zinsberg (approx. 15 minutes from Jochstub’n See) directly down to the Filzalmsee. This shortens the total walking time by approx. 1 hour.
Those who prefer to go uphill rather than downhill can also walk the tour in reverse from Hexenwasser Hochsöll to KaiserWelt Scheffau.
