What travelers say:

Kurfstein is an old medieval town in Austria, located on the border between Germany and Austria, the quiet town is surrounded by forests, lakes, and mountains, both a complex medieval style, and a small and fresh pastoral life, the small town is full of tranquility and leisure atmosphere! Shuttle in the ancient alley, it is impossible to describe the complicated and beautiful alley in words. Every window in the alley is dotted with blooming flowers, and the flowers and plants are also dotted with pastoral little fat chickens and fat pigs. Every wall is painted with retro Tyroleans, empty and beautiful iron art. The arches of the arcs seem to bring people back to that splendid medieval "Fort Kurfstein" is the center and symbol of the city, and the fortress also has 4307 sound pipes and 46 ranges of "hero pipe organ", the world's largest field pipe organ. Every day at 12 noon (July and August will be at 18 pm), the music playing is loud throughout the city, very pleasant to take a transparent tilt elevator under the mountain to go directly to the fortress from the city center, look out from the glass elevator, slowly see the whole picture of this town, especially beautiful! In addition to visiting the small city, the surrounding mountains are also a paradise for hikers. Take the cable car to Wilder Caesar Mountain (Wilder Kaiser)), where there is a very beautiful hiking route, the pastoral scenery along the way, and Switzerland are especially similar, it is worth visiting! 🚙 Transportation: Austrian Federal Railway OEBB and German Railway DB have trains to Küfstein.
