Klausberg is wobbling! Because the new confidence course is now open! It’s a kind of high ropes adventure park, only not that high, through which kids can climb, swing, wriggle and wobble … and all just above the ground! “Maxi-Fun/Mini-Height”: Specially designed for younger children, this confidence course right next to the Water Adventure Park is a real hit! It takes skill and balance, but if you “wobble” a bit sometimes, what does it matter? The slacklines, loops, climbing elements and nets are all mounted low to the ground! Let the wobbling begin – fun for the whole family! • 6-part slackline with different heights and lengths • 6-part kids’ confidence course with climbing, swinging and balancing (loops, hanging pipes, swing strap, hand over hand path, netting wall) • 1 large climbing wall with net swing • 1 30 m flying fox down the hill If you’re up for the “big knee trembler”, wobble your way over to these bigger adventures as fast as your legs can carry you: Enzwaldile high ropes adventure park, Klausberg-Flitzer …

The Speikboden was made very popular with long-distance fliers by Kurt Eder. The South Tyrolean rarely leaves his home country and is regularly seen to reach top positions in XC-competitions worldwide. This shows the potential of the area. The Speikboden is an excellent long-distance area both for beginners and forexperienced pilots; flying is possible all year round, but the period from June to September offers the best conditions. The panorama of the area you fly through is breathtaking. In the south the view even extends to the central Dolomites. The Speikboden lies south of the Zillertaler Alps. For this reason it is affected by North wind; if it is too strong you are well-advised not to fly. The high and impressive Durreck massive lies directly behind it and protects the starting place even from modest North wind. 

Starting place

Starting place (level of difficulty: easy) on 2,450 m above sea level (GPS: N46°54´54´´ E011°53´57´´). You get to the upper terminal (2,000m) with the cable car Speikboden, then it is a seven-minute walk to the chairlift Sonnklar, which takes you up to 2, 400 m above sea level. There are various starting possibilities. The more beautiful starting places are situated to the west of the upper terminal. First you walk downhill for about ten minutes, then up the hill in the direction of the Speikboden summit. You pass meadows that show towards the south. Opposite them there is a North starting place. In the spring, with snow on the mountain, you can walk down the hill in eastern direction for some minutes and you will then find a beautiful South starting place. You can also continue to walk until you get to the cross. From here you can start towards the North, East and South.

Landing place

Sand in Taufers: 870 m, GPS: N46°54´43´´ E011°57´38. A huge and obstacle-free meadow in the south-east of Sand. To get to the landing place you turn right towards Ahornach just before Sand and then drive on towards Kematen or the industrial area. It is situated next to the street, near the gym hall and the swimming pool. Signs and windsock are provided. The club asks you to respect and follow the rules of conduct listed, if you start from Speikboden, you do not have to pay the landing fees. Advise: Park the bike to get back your car. Under www.oberhollenzer.com you find bus connections (partly only weekdays) from the landing place (Citybus-stop „Sand i.T. industrial area”) until the bus stop in Sand in Taufers. Arrived there you take the regular bus towards Luttach, which will take you to the parking lot of the Speikboden lifts.

Tandem flights

Any one can do this. It does not need any sporting ability or particular expertise. The only thing you need is sturdy shoes, warm clothes and to be preparedto run at the start for 5-6 meters. Your tandem pilot will do the rest. The flight will definitely leave you with unforgettable memories.

Agree a date with our partners "Tandemflights Kronplatz" and "Kronfly", and you will experience firsthand an unforgettable flight from the Speikboden.

Hang gliders

The transport of hang gliders is not possible with the lifts (except it can be folded to 2m in length). In this case please contact the "Falkenclub" which organizes rides to the launch site with SUVs.

“Michl” is just waiting for a visit from leisure and beginner climbers. On an easy, B-difficulty course, it can offer a real climbing experience to any visitor with a half-good head for heights. After a little overhang, climbers pull themselves over rock bars that on average remain relatively low. Ideal for practising clicking and changing carabiners. A short hiking route shares the via ferrata in two sections. Small surprise: a stream provides refreshment and a place to rest and let you take in the natural surroundings. And not forgetting your own climbing performance too. After a further climb, at the exit of the via ferrata is one of the loveliest viewing points in the Speikboden area. The little Speikboden lake, a hidden gem, rewards all visitors with a natural spectacle at the conclusion of the climb.

Anyone who has got the bug for more climbing can hike down the mountain to the start of the Speikboden's “Genie in a Bottle” via ferrata. Climbers who have used “Michl” to warm up will manage well on the next via ferrata.

At the far end of the valley, just before reaching Mühlwald/Selva dei Molino, is the beautiful Mühlwald lake, a small dam lake at around 1,220 m above sea level that can be easily circumnavigated in half an hour on a barrier-free circular trail. Numerous rest areas with shady seating invite you to linger along the way.

Loads of Fun at Klausiland WHAT KLAUSI LEARNS …- AND WHAT KLAUS DID ABOUT IT It's a fact of nature that everything that's only as tall as three or four pieces of cheese can live higher up in the mountains. This is also true in Klausi-Land, the new children's ski world with lots of attractions: magic carpet, Klausi express, snow igloo, Klausi mountain, slide, witch's slalom… Klausi, the marmot, will personally stay close at hand so that nothing can go wrong, the worst that can happen is that you laugh until you cry….

Das Abenteuer beginnt bei der Station Ziegenhandy: flüstere der Ziege deine geheime Nachricht ins Ohr – wer kann es hören? Finde es heraus! Weiter geht’s zu den Tierbänken, hier kann nochmal kurz Rast gemacht werden, bevor man bei den Stationen Kuh-Läuten und Futterkrippe die eigene Balance testen kann. Der Ziegenbaum ist das letzte Hindernis bevor ihr auf der Kuh-Rutsche ins Ziel gelangt.

Turn your well-earned holiday into an enjoyment with your dearest ones, surrounded by a fascinating mountain panorama with wonderful insights and outlooks.

We have planned and furnished with a lot of love and care our store and supplied with food, clothing products, household goods, toys; comfortable, flooded with light, homely.

In 2023, a brand new adrenaline rush is coming to the Speikboden. We can’t wait to welcome you to CROSS WOODS, Italy’s first forest slide park.

Works will begin beneath Pirate’s Rock, the magical via ferrata for children, in early summer. In July 2023, things will really get off to a flying start when the first visitors go speeding down the four landscape slides. Meanwhile, newbies to the world of sliding can find their feet in the small slide field under the trees.

And it goes without saying that CROSS WOODS is a zero-emissions attraction; visitors walk to the top on foot and are whisked away by the force of gravity and their own body weight.

Slide riders can rent a slide mat from one of our staff members at a cost of 5 euros per day. This enables riders to go down the slides as many times as they wish and spend as long on them as their adrenaline rush lasts! For each paying adult, one child under the age of 12 can use a slide mat free of charge.

July 1st 2023 – October 15th 2023 during the operating times of cablecar Speikboden

Fees: Carpet daily: 5 Euro

For each paying adult, one child under the age of 12 can use a slide mat free of charge.

For once, sleeping like the Inuit. On the Speikboden not only ski dreams come true – a night in an igloo is possible too.

And because holidays in the Tauferer Ahrntal are a culinary highlight, the overnight stay is topped with a typical cuisine. After dinner, when it is time to crawl into the sleeping bags, everyone will realize that sleeping in an igloo is not that cold after all.

The igloos are not far from the mountain station of the Speikboden-lift facilities at an altitude of 2000 meters. This is where cold dreams heat up and where adventures are no longer a dream, but reality.

Suitable for enthusiastic newcomers, a welcoming side event for mountain lovers, exiting for sportive climbers. The via ferrata is of a medium degree of difficulty, starting right after the exit of the  Speikboden gondola at 2.000m. You’ll overcome 350m of difference in altitude belayed and safe. On your first steps out of the gondola you will already get this pure feeling of summits surrounding you. Hold on for the stunning view across Valley Aurina, Zillertal Alps and the white peaks of Durreck. Walk on for the entrance of the via ferrata. Keep the feeling of touching mountains and sky while you step into the via ferrata. Get excited on the super long suspension bridge, get a grip on the edgy rocks of the mountains. You’ll arrive at the very peak of Speikboden. Heading towards a panoramic view you can only here enjoy: Dolomites, Tre Cime and Marmolata towards the glaciers of Valley Aurina. The tour is considered a circular route, for your way back you can either chose the chairlift Sonnklar or hike downwards the alpine paths of the Speikboden recreation area.
