The two reservoirs on Hohe Salve beckon to put in a break, relax and enjoy nature. Via a sparse forest the route then continues past the Jordan Chapel to the third lake on the hike. The Filzalmsee Lake in Brixen is one of the numerous mountain adventure worlds in the region of the Kitzbühel Alps. Right by the lake, you can discover the water playground and many exciting interactive stations. Over the so-called Giant’s trail, the route takes you from Filzalmsee onto Hochsöll. There the bewitched mountain adventure world - the Witches' Water is waiting for you. In the Witches' Water you can discover the longest barefoot trail in Austria, and learn more about the wonder of nature at the many stations. After some 440 m difference in altitude covered and a total distance of around 9 km, the gondola lift will take you back to the starting point again. This is best done by taking the gondola lift from Hochsöll up to the summit of the Hohe Salve and then the cable car Hohe Salve back into the valley via two stations to Hopfgarten.
