Panoramic platform “Kaiserblick”

The walkway, which has a glass floor, leads 30 metres up to lofty heights and offers a view of more than 30 three-thousand-metre peaks, which can be seen up close through telescopes. Austria's highest mountains, the Grossglockner and the Dachstein, which can be closely observed, are particularly worthy of mention. The glistening waters of Lake Zell immediately catch the eye: if you look closely, you can even recognise the MS Schmittenhöhe from the Schmitten boat fleet gliding across the lake. Schmitten tip: The excursion to the panoramic platform Kaiserblick can be combined with an exploration of the Sisi trail. The Elisabeth Chapel is the counterpart to the imperial footbridge, whose name is dedicated to Franz Joseph I. It is the destination and starting point of the Sisi Trail. The empress visited the Schmittenhöhe back in the 19th century to experience a very special sunrise against a unique mountain backdrop.
