What visitors say
The gondola takes about six minutes from Zaglau to the Bischlinghöhe at just over 1,800 metres. At the top is the Ikarus-Höhenrundweg, a kilometre around the summit cross that is flat enough for a pushchair and wheelchair, with a view reaching from the Tennengebirge to the Hohe Tauern. Those who want more than that circuit walk on to the Bischlingalm, Ladenberg or Moosalm for a snack. Werfenweng focuses on quiet tourism; expect no large mountain-lift circus with attractions, but a viewpoint with walking paths.
- · The circuit at the top is short: plan in an alm as well if you want to stay longer.
- · One of the few mountain lifts where the highest path is genuinely pushchair- and wheelchair-friendly.
