Hirscheck chairlift

Breathtaking mountain views in the mountaineering village of Ramsau
  • Open today
  • Ramsau

The Hirscheck chairlift carries you up to the high plateau above the mountaineering village of Ramsau. At the top, soak up the sun on the terrace at Hirschkaser mountain restaurant or set out on a hike surrounded by spectacular mountain scenery.

Leave the hustle and bustle behind

The 14-minute chairlift ride up to Hirscheck is your chance to leave the hustle and bustle behind. At the top, an unforgettable panorama awaits you at an elevation of 1,390 meters. Your gaze sweeps from Hoher Göll and Hohes Brett across Hagengebirge and all the way to Watzmann. The mighty Wimbachtal separates the king of the Berchtesgaden Alps from the almost equally imposing Hochkalter massif. Reiter Alm and the Lattengebirge complete the panoramic view. Take a short walk to the nearby summit of Toter Mann or simply relax on the spacious sun terrace.

 

The Hochschwarzeck chairlift

In the late 1960s, industrialist Willy Schlieker developed the Hochschwarzeck ski area. After challenging times and several changes of ownership, the lift is now owned by residents of the mountaineering village of Ramsau. Shares in the company, now organized as a GmbH & Co. KG, are widely held by private individuals and businesses, most of them based in Ramsau.
