    The path challenges adventurers. Hikers, mountaineers, climbers, and paragliders are drawn to the lively Hochjoch with an activity area, an ibex colony, and great views. From the Sennigrat mountain station, you walk on a sunny path to the Wormser Hütte, down into the Seetal to the three lakes, and towards the Kapellalpe to the Nature Forces Trail.

    This scenic hike takes you up the Sennigrat Bahn. From there past the Wormser Hütte through the Seetal past fresh mountain lakes to the stations of the new Nature Forces Trail

    At the highest point at the Wormser Hütte, you can indulge yourself culinary and enjoy the breathtaking view alongside. On the other side below the Hochjoch, you can also watch climbers on the via ferrata. Then the path leads you into the idyllic Seetal. Here you pass by low mountain lakes and lush alpine meadows. The Nature Forces Trail imparts knowledge about the elements in the mountains. Here you can create summit storms at the wind towers and raise stone giants with your own muscle power.

    Enjoy the view with a homemade apple strudel at the Wormser Hütte.
