Hike from the Tauplitzalm over the Niederblas to Tauplitz

From the top station of the chairlift you take the path 275 back to the valley station of the chairlift.
During these tours, you will drop down to Tauplitz, the charming village right next to the valley station of the quad chairlift, where you will discover hotels, guesthouses, inns, a grocery store, a village bakery as well as a dance paradise. Small, but truly special. There are four different options for hiking from the Tauplitzalm – the biggest lake plateau in Central Europe – down to the valley.
