ORF Summertour in Kühtai

The ORF Tirol Summertour stops off in Kühtai - and invites you to an eventful day in the mountains from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.! With the correct solution word, you can enjoy a free ascent and descent on the DreiSeenBahn and discover a varied programme for the whole family.

Look forward to child-friendly hikes with magnificent views, a 6.5 metre high wooden cow family with ladders, rope stairs and slides as well as two lovingly designed wooden marble runs. Here you can playfully experience elements of traditional alpine farming - from hay rakes to butter churns.

Our highlights:

Wooden cow not only attracts young guests to Kühtai

One of the world's largest suckler cows with calf is waiting to be discovered. At 6.5 metres high, this huge cow family at the DreiSeen-Hut is an oversized play structure for children. The high alpine cow family is complemented by three metre high wooden letters. The letters form the word ‘KÜHTAI’ and offer opportunities for climbing, swinging, sliding and hiding.
