Right next to our luxury apartments

Located at the foot of the Hohe Salve at 1,150 meters, the Hexenwasser Children’s Adventure Park in Söll, Tyrol, has been delighting guests of all ages for more than 10 years. Just a few steps away from our luxury vacation apartments in Söll, the adventure begins with the so-called “ride on the witch’s broom”—the trip on the Hochsöll adventure gondola. The 10-person gondola is suitable for both strollers and wheelchair users.

How much does it cost to visit Hexenwasser?

Only the round-trip ride on the mountain railway is subject to a fee. However, all guests can visit the adventure park and enjoy the grounds free of charge. There are also discounted afternoon rates starting at 1:00 p.m.

Things of Interest for Adults – What Else Is There to See in Hexenwasser?

We’d like to draw your attention to a very special gem:

The Salvenkirchlein:
The name “Salve” is derived from the Latin greeting “be well.” The Salvenkirchlein is Austria’s highest pilgrimage church. It is located at an elevation of 1,829 meters and offers a breathtaking view of the Wilder Kaiser mountain range and over 70 peaks over 3,000 meters high. From May through October, a guided tour is offered every Wednesday, where you can learn fascinating facts about the history of this mountain-top church.

Traveling with children often means that the simpler the vacation, the more relaxed everyone is. That’s exactly why families feel so at home here at the Aparthotel Bergland.

• Our spacious family apartments offer plenty of room to play, cuddle, and relax. For the little ones, we’re happy to provide toddler equipment upon request. You’ll also find a play box with Duplo and other toys, children’s books, and board games, as well as a ping-pong table, a foosball table, and two strollers available for rent. A real highlight for many families is our location right on the Hexenwasser and right next to the mountain railway. This means your next adventure often begins just a few minutes after breakfast.
• We make things as easy as possible for you on your hiking vacation, too:
  • The free “Kaiserjet” hiking bus stops right in front of the house and takes you conveniently to many hiking trails around the Wilder Kaiser.
  • You can borrow hiking poles, hiking backpacks, and picnic baskets for free.
  • When you’re on the go, you can put together your own Bergland lunchbox for the hike at the breakfast buffet (for a fee and by advance reservation). This is often a lifesaver, especially with kids, when they get a little hungry along the way.
• If you’d like to explore even more, you can join the guided hikes in the region for free. And after an eventful day, your spacious, luxury vacation apartment in Söll awaits you. While the kids play in the garden and at the small playground, parents can enjoy a few quiet minutes in the sauna, steam room, or infrared cabin. Or you can all splash around together in the natural swimming pond.
  That’s exactly what a relaxing vacation with kids at the Wilder Kaiser feels like.
