Description

The Bike & Hike tour starts at the Talstation Rosshütte. Follow the trail markers towards Rosshütte and park your bike at the Bergstation. From there, hike southwards on initially broad grassy ridges and across a narrower ridge to the Seefelder Spitze at 2,220 m. Now a challenging path leads just to the right of the south ridge in partly slightly crumbly terrain downwards into a gap to the other side of the ridge and down to the "Törl" at 2,122 m. Keeping to the right, you will reach a trail junction downhill. Following the base of the rock to the left, you reach the Reither Joch via some rocks. There, choose the path to the northwest and continue down through steep slopes to the Bergstation Härmelekopf at 2,034 m, from where you can take the gondola high above the Hermannstal back to the Bergstation Rosshütte. There, enjoy the dreamlike panorama once more before biking back down to the valley.

Details for the entire tour:

  • Bike route no. 5027: approx. 4.6 km, 525 m elevation gain, 1h, difficulty: difficult (time round trip: 2h)
