Sunrise at the mountain


Sunrise ride to the Wiedersberger Horn
At dawn, the Wiedersbergerhorn cable car takes you comfortably to the mountain station. From there, you hike independently in about an hour to the summit of the Wiedersberger Horn at 2,127 metres above sea level.
At the top you will experience the fascinating natural spectacle of the sunrise with a fantastic panoramic view. And if you get hungry afterwards, we recommend a small breakfast on the mountain for a perfect start to the day!
The sunrise tour takes place every second Thursday during the summer holidays.
The exact time of the sunrise tour for 2023 is still to be announced! Subject to change!
Tips for your sunrise hike
- Walking time: approx. 45 minutes to the peak
- The cable car operates for 45 minutes about half an hour after sunrise for the descent.
- Breakfast: Berggasthof Hornboden or Hornalm. Please book in advance. Breakfast not included in the price!
- The hike is at your own risk!
- Cancelled in case of bad weather (tickets can be used for another date in the year)!
If you are often on the move in the mountains, then you probably already have your packing list in mind. However, for the sunrise, we recommend that you take a few more items with you in your rucksack. We recommend that you take a second jacket, a headband, a headlamp, sunglasses and maybe even gloves. Because even in summer, it can get quite cold on the mountain early in the morning.
