Good to know: Rules with heart from the Wilder Kaiser region
We love dogs and want your holiday at the Wilder Kaiser to be unforgettable. So that all guests, whether on two or four paws, can enjoy the Wilder Kaiser region to the full, the tourism association has some simple rules that should be followed when hiking and walking with dogs. In this article, we have compiled the most important tips for the Wilder Kaiser region:
1. experience the mountains together – be active at the Wilder Kaiser:
Exercise areas (off-leash) where dogs can let off steam
The Wilder Kaiser region offers special dog miles and meadows for dogs, where your four-legged friend can run around to their heart’s content without a leash and meet new friends:
One highlight is certainly the charming dog mile along the Stampfangerbach stream in Söll (approx. 100 m behind our holiday apartment / your favorite holiday apartment in Söll) or the large, fenced-in dog meadow on 3,200 m² in Kitzbühel. These exercise areas are accessible free of charge and perfect for giving your dog a little freedom under safe supervision.
Hiking & biking (with leash):
It is important to keep your dog on a lead in places such as hiking trails, the town center, fields and pastures. This ensures that both the local wildlife and your furry friend are protected.
A little tip:
There are practical dispensers with free dog waste bags and waste garbage cans for disposal along the walking and hiking trails.
Please note that the region attaches great importance to compliance with these regulations (checks are carried out). Fines of up to €2000 can be imposed for non-compliance with the dog waste collection or leash requirement.
2. bathing lakes for dogs – looking for refreshment?
When the summer heat is pressing down, various cool spots offer a welcome way for your dog to cool off. The Wilder Kaiser region offers special dog pools and beaches for dogs, where your darling can splash around:
- Gieringer Weiher (dogs are allowed to splash around in the entire pond)
- Dog beach at Walchsee (eastern shore)
- Dog pool at Hexenwasser (behind Stöcklalm)
- Dog area at Pillersee (marked)
Please note: The region’s bathing lakes are reserved for humans.
3. mobility with a dog: bus, train and mountain railroad
Whether regional bus, train or mountain railroad – your dog is a welcome passenger.
- All regional buses and the KaiserJet are free for your four-legged friends.
- The cable cars in Scheffau and Söll are also free for dogs! There is only a small charge for taking your dog on the Ellmau – Going cable cars. Please remember that dogs must be kept on a lead and muzzled on the buses and cable cars.
So nothing stands in the way of your active mountain adventure! We hope we have been able to inform you as much as possible about the dog offer and the little rules of the region in this article. In any case, we look forward to welcoming you and your four-legged friends to our apartment house in Söll soon. You can find all information in detail on the website of the Wilder Kaiser region:
