Via Maishofen´s ridgeway you walk to mountain guesthouse Mitterberghof, where the comfortable sun terrace is inviting for a break. Enjoy the wonderful panorama view onto the surrounding mountains. Your way leads you downhill to Thumersbach past the Hubertus chapel and on along lake Zell, where a visit to the lido attracts. Via Mayerhofen and the Steinberg mountail you return to the palace Kammer.
By bus from the centre of Maishofen to ‘Sportregion Saalbach’. From Hinterglemm Mitterlengau a beautiful hike leads into the end of the valley. About the Forsthof alp leads the circular route to Saal alp and continue to Lindling alp, via a suspension bridge to the Baumwipfelweg. Return journey by bus to Maishofen.
Journey by bus to Zell am See, your goal is the mountain railway Schmittenbahn. By enclosure you reach the peak of mountain Schmittenhöhe on 1.965m. Enjoy the unique view onto lake Zell as well as an impressing panorama view onto numerous 3.000m peaks. After the visit of Elisabeth chapel you walk down into the valley, first you reach mountain Sonnkogel, then Sonn alp and finally Zell am See. Take your time for a stroll through the city. You return by bus to Maishofen.
Directly from Kammer palace you enter your ‘royal stage’ onto mountain Schwalbenwand, Maishofen´s local mountain (2,011m). Along varied trails you first walk to the peak in Maishofen, and a little later you can also reach the plateau of mountain Schwalbenwand if you want. It is well worth the effort and you will be rewarded with a unique panoramic view onto the snow-covered peaks of Hohe Tauern, the Steinerne Meer and the local grassy mountains. You return via Kammeregg alp where you recharge your batteries with a glass of cider and a bacon sandwich.
A leisurely tour at the end of your hiking week in Maishofen. Follow the young Saalach to Ratzenstein-Höhe on the Stammgäste-Weg. A forested mountain range continues to Neunbrunnen and down to the idyllic Waldsee, on whose banks it is worth resting. Back you hike comfortably across the fields and meadows to Schloss Kammer.

Hotel Schloss Kammer Maishofen
★★★★
The motto of the family Neumayer “preserve traditional values worth of protection and convince with the contemporary” is implemented in a very lovely way in every detail of their hotel. The family has been leading, and above all living, the agricultural and touristic family business for eight generations. This is how they make you feel what it means to be “really a guest”. The castle, which was fully renovated in 1994 and 2007, will take you back to ancient times and still you won’t miss any modern comfort. Only natural materials were used in the very stylish rooms. The family’s love for local products can also be found in the hotel kitchen. The hotel restaurant is widely known for its Pinzgau specialities for which products from the farm, the garden, the fields and woods are used. Even the bread is baked in their own wooden stove. The Badstub`n spa – with a rustic farmer’s sauna, stone bath, solarium, and infrared cabin – invites you to relax. Or you can refresh yourself in the large swimming pond in the garden of the castle.

Angenehme Wanderrouten im schönen Pinzgau
Die Wanderwoche im Pinzgau mit der Unterkunft im Schloss Kammer war wunderschön. Gut geplante und einfach zu findende Wanderrouten. Tolles reichhaltiges Essen im Schloss Kammer. Am Besten hat uns die Rundwanderung Lindlingalm & Saalalm und Rundwanderung Zeller See gefallen. Es war grundsätzlich immer toll, Blick auf die verschneiten Berge zu haben.
