Circular walk Buchensteinwand
EasyThe tour is mostly on easy hiking trails with only a short section of moderate difficulty. The numerous refreshment stops serving regional delicacies, the glorious scenery of the Kitzbühel Alps with stunning views of the imposing Wilder Kaiser to the north and the main ridge of the Alps to the south make the hike a truly wonderful experience you’ll never forget.
