    Photo: Gerhard Ottino, Hochkönig
Popular vantage point in Dienten with a view of the Hochkönig massif.

With its view of the Hochkönig massif on the opposite side, the Wastlhöhe is perfect as a photo motif.

The summit can be reached in summer via several paths such as the Zachhofalm, the Bürglalm or coming from Mühlbach via the Schneeberg or the Ahornstein.

If you prefer a more leisurely route, you can use the Bürglalm cable car (note operating times!) for the ascent or descent.

In winter, skiers also pass by the Wastlhöhe, which is located in the heart of the Hochkönig ski area.
