Scheffau is a tourist municipality in the Austrian district of Kufstein at the foot of the Wild Emperor in the State of Tyrol.. This is an introduction to the mountain and ski region on the Wilder Kaiser. The place is particularly well attended in the winter season, as evidenced by the approx. 2,000 guest beds in the place. Due to the good motorway connection, Scheffau is often approached by day tourists from Germany.
The connecting road between Wögl and St. Johann in Tirol runs through the village. The town center, however, is 700 m uphill.
