ST. JOHANN IN TIROL
P eaks , l aby ri nth s , m oors & m ore

with paths that pass under
shady forests and the cool
spray of spring water to enjoy.
Then there are the forest trails
of Teufelsgasse near Gasteig
guaranteed to set adventurers’
passions alight with thin
labyrinthic passages carved
straight into the rock. Moreover,
don’t miss the moors on the
south-eastern side of the Kaiser
mountains; there are two loop
trails that peacefully meander
through these natural gems
of the Wilder Kaiser, with
information panels to find about
the unique flora and fauna.
What ‘moor’ could you ask for?
