    Pretty walk for the family, from the mountain station to the valley station Sonnenkopfbahn.

    The hike begins with the ascent with the Sonnenkopf cable car. Once you have reached the top, it is worthwhile to stop off at the Sonnenkopf mountain restaurant and visit Bärenland before returning to the valley on foot. The trail starts directly at the mountain station and first leads along the forest road and then on a hiking trail down to the valley station of the Sonnenkopf cable car.

    Stop at the mountain restaurant Sonnenkopf and a visit to the bear country!
