Opening times, information & how to get to SkiWelt Brixen

The Brixen Mountain Railway takes you by the Hochbrixen gondola lift directly from the town centre up to 1,300 m – to the RiesenWelt in summer, and right into the heart of the SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser – Brixental in winter. The SkiWeltbahn takes you to the Choralpe – and thus to Westendorf – in just a few minutes. Any questions about tickets, opening hours or groups? You can contact us directly here.

RiesenWelt Brixen im Thale

Easy panoramic trails lead from Hochbrixen to Scheffau, Söll and Hopfgarten, as well as circular walks through the countryside and high moors. Families can set off on the ‘RiesenWelt’ trail, and there are rustic huts serving regional cuisine where you can stop for a bite to eat.

Directions & Parking

You can reach Scheffau by car via the Inntal motorway (A12). To do so, take the Kufstein-Süd (toll-free) or Wörgl-Ost exit. If you’re travelling by train, the nearest stations are Kufstein, Wörgl, Hopfgarten or St. Johann. From there, buses or taxis will take you directly to Scheffau. The nearest airport is Salzburg; alternatively, Innsbruck or Munich are also suitable. If you are travelling by car, we recommend that you leave your car parked at your accommodation if possible and use the buses to the cable car. If you prefer to drive directly to the valley station in Brixen/Bressanone, there are plenty of free parking spaces available there. Charging stations for electric cars are also available at the valley station at the gravel car park (subject to a charge).
