Discover Oberperfuss: Trails, Cable Cars and Culture

Oberperfuss offers various ways to plan a holiday between hiking trails, cable cars and regional culture. You can combine active days with a trip into the mountain area, choose village paths leading to chapels or learn about the history of important personalities. When looking for a holiday apartment in Oberperfuss, it is therefore worth first deciding on your preferred travel rhythm: Should the trip focus mainly on hikes, offer winter experiences or leave room for cultural discoveries?

Experiences for Curious Explorers

At Rangger Köpfl, the Legends Trail comprises 21 stations featuring stories by primary school pupils from Oberperfuss. Each station has an information board, five of which are puzzle stations. Rangger Köpfl is also home to a disc golf course with 18 holes. These two activities have different focuses: The Legends Trail combines stories and exercise, while the individual holes determine the course of play in disc golf.

The Chapel Walk in Oberperfuss – Village Loop also focuses on local culture. It follows quiet and idyllic paths through the village to numerous, partly renovated chapels. This village loop is suitable as a separate activity for a more leisurely day of your holiday. When choosing your accommodation, you can consider whether you want to focus on such village paths or on trips into the mountain area.

Cable Cars, Summer Trails and Winter Experiences

The 8-passenger Peter-Anich I gondola lift runs from the valley station in Oberperfuss to the Stiglreith panoramic restaurant. From there, the 8-passenger Peter-Anich II gondola lift continues to Sulzstich at around 1,800 metres. In summer, scenic hiking trails lead from the Oberperfuss cable car area to the Rosskogelhütte, Rosskogel, Peter-Anich-Hütte and Hundstalsee. This allows you to plan your holiday days in different ways: A ride on the cable cars provides the starting point for a hike, while other days can focus more strongly on the village and its cultural attractions.

For the cold season, further specific activities form part of the Rangger Köpfl experience. Eight of the ten kilometres of the toboggan run are illuminated. Snowshoe hikes are also possible there.

The panoramic road to Stiglreith provides important guidance for travelling to the mountain area: It can only be reached via Oberperfuss. If you want to combine various excursion destinations, you can take this access route into account when planning your trip. The specific choice of accommodation remains a matter of your personal daily schedule and the desired combination of village, culture and mountain landscape.

Peter Anich and the Culture of Oberperfuss

Oberperfuss parish church contains several remarkable details of cultural and historical significance. A sundial by Peter Anich is located on the outside of the southern side. During renovation work in 1970, vault paintings by Franz Altmutter were uncovered in the church. The Anich-Hueber Museum provides information about the work and achievements of Peter Anich and Blasius Hueber. Please note for your visit: The museum is open only by appointment.

This also makes it possible to explore Oberperfuss through its personalities, art and local history. The Chapel Walk, the parish church and the museum each offer a different focus. Especially when the weather does not support a full day of hiking, you can plan your trip more around these cultural sites.
