Simple family-friendly route to Kranzhorn with a magnificent panorama over the entire Inn valley. Only at the summit might you get a feeling of exposure.
Author’s recommendation
Place to stop at the Kranzhorn Alm with very good (not exactly cheap) cuisine and a large range of leisure activities for children including a playground and animal enclosure.

Route probably also suitable as a ski tour to start the season in winter with good snow conditions.Roadbook
From the parking lot, follow a well-marked gravel path to Hintermoar Alm and ascend in somewhat steeper switchbacks to the managed (May to October, 20 beds) Kranzhorn Alm. Shortly after, you get the first beautiful view towards Kufstein, the Kaiser mountains, and the higher Alps behind them. Over alpine meadows, follow a steeper path past the small chapel to the summit. Caution is advised here due to steep drops.
