Hiking and exploring
How to enjoy Jochberg in summer
Hundreds of kilometres of marked trails run around Jochberg, from a short stroll through the village to mountain hikes across the Kitzbühel Alps. A few tips to get you started:
Sintersbach waterfall
The Sintersbach drops 85 metres into natural pools. From the Schradlern car park you get there in about an hour; as a loop via the Jochberger Wildalm and the Drachensteig it is 9.3 km (about 4 hours).
Jochberger Wasserweg
A gentle loop of about 1.5 hours through the village, past old springs, the Vorderkünstler farmhouse museum, the Wagstättbahn valley station and the forest pool, and back along the Jochberger Ache.
Jochberger Höhenweg
A high trail with wide views over the southern Kitzbühel mountains. Ideal for a day up high, without any climbing.
Waldschwimmbad Jochberg
An idyllic open-air pool at the edge of the forest – a lovely way to cool off after a warm day of hiking.
Jochberg Wald
A gently rising walk to the pilgrimage church of Jochberg Wald, with fine views over the valley.
Kupferplatte show mine
The old copper mine of Jochberg shows how ore was mined here for centuries. Please note: the mine is closed for renovation in the 2026 season.
Cycling and cable cars
Up the mountain by bike and lift
Plenty of mountain bike and e-bike routes run around Kitzbühel, and several KitzSki cable cars operate in summer too. The KitzSki & Bike Card covers them in summer and winter. For bikes and bike servicing, head to Bikeladl in the village, the summer shop of Schiladl.
