The 30 km-long Rauris Valley is a world of nature and memorable experiences during the summer: 295 km of marked hiking paths and alpine trails in Rauris Valley, 780 km of hiking paths in Taxenbach, the great birds-of-prey including bearded vultures, griffon vultures and golden eagles, as well as other free-roaming wild animals, evidence of bygone days when this area represented the heart of gold mining, places of immense natural power such as Rauriser UrQuell spring and natural jewels like Rauris Virgin Forest and Kitzloch Gorge.

Lush green alpine meadows at the valley head with mighty 3,000ers, Europe’s highest permanent weather station on the Hoher Sonnblick, and numerous mountain huts and inns giving visitors a heartfelt welcome.

Experience a true summertime feeling during your summer holidays in the Alps!
