Der Bär loves to share.

With its jagged, rugged peaks, the Wilder Kaiser perfectly represents the majestic quality of a Tyrolean mountain holiday in Ellmau. Together with its gentle brother – the Zahmer Kaiser (“Tame Kaiser”) – the Wilder Kaiser forms one of the most beautiful mountain ranges in the Alps and has been a nature reserve since the 1920s. As rough and rugged as the mountain flanks of the famous rock massif present themselves, everything you can experience around the Wilder Kaiser is inviting and varied.
The first settlers settled in the region 5,000 years ago and the Wilder Kaiser continues to irresistibly attract people to this day. The Wilder Kaiser was tamed for tourism in the second half of the 19th century, when the rocky massif became the destination of many climbers. Their adventures are the stuff of legends told in the regional inns to this very day. Speaking of which: many of the inns from back then have now become beautiful hotels. Like the gourmet hotel Der Bär, for example, which also has numerous interesting stories to tell.
