    One of the highest wind turbines in Europe is located at 1,400 m above sea level directly on the Sommeralm. The wind turbine is a landmark that can be seen from afar. It generates electricity for 350 households and is therefore a destination for every guest who is interested in the environment.
    A display board with information on energy generation by wind power is attached to the wind turbine.
    Danger:
    After several lightning strikes, the wind turbine is currently out of operation and is expected to be replaced by a larger one in the next few years.
