According to legend, fairy spruce spirits built a castle on Mount Rosenalm, which is a unique playground. We recommend this place if you are traveling with kids.
Like other children's parks in the mountains, Spruce Castle is only open during the warm season, tentatively from early May to early October. Exact dates depend on the weather. Before visiting, check the opening hours at
google.maps.

There are good views of the Zillertal valley from the mountain. A good viewing platform is located at the very top of the castle.
