Top Station Chairlift - Tauplitz via path 276

This easy hike in Ausseerland offers a leisurely way to get from the Tauplitzalm back to the village center of Tauplitz. Trail no. 276 is mostly downhill, easy to walk and ideal for a relaxed half-day tour with wonderful views of the surrounding mountains.

The tour begins with a scenic ride on the Tauplitz 4-seater chairlift from the village center up to the sunny plateau of the Tauplitzalm. The hike starts at the mountain station.

Before heading down into the valley, we recommend a short visit to the nearby mountain church - its simple architecture and tranquillity make it a special place.

South of the church, the well-marked trail no. 276, known as the old Almweg, leads down into the valley. The first part of the descent is on a paved gravel path to below the middle station. From there, the trail descends on an asphalt road to the village center of Tauplitz.

The old alpine trail is not only the shortest connection from the alpine pasture to the valley, but also a scenic alternative. For other easy and medium-difficulty hikes around the Tauplitzalm, it's worth taking a look at the free Ausseerland hiking map or visiting the hiking map store.
