Description

Along alpine herb meadows and imposing mountain peaks to Hochfeldern Alm

From the Salzbach parking lot in Leutasch ride uphill on a wide forest path - at the beginning a little steeper, then flat through the picturesque valley Gaistal. After a short descent you soon reach the branches to the Gaistal- and Tillfußalm, at km 6,5 you reach the branch to the Hochfeldern Alm. Leaving the bottom of the valley, you pass the Felderalm. After a short steep section to the forest line you pass the turnoff to the Ehrwalder Alm. About another kilometre later you reach the Hochfeldern Alm (1,732 m), which is open in summer. If you want to go on to the Ehrwalder Alm (Route No. 813), cycle back to the junction with Route 551 and then head west. Shortly after the lake Iglsee the forest road branches off, keep right here and bike towards Ehrwalder Alm.

Attention pasture cattle, please keep distance and cross the pasture area calmly and quickly.
