Description

Drive from Brixlegg via Zimmermoos, past the Schwarzenberg chapel, continuing over the forest road to the Berggasthof Holzalm parking lot. 

From the parking lot, the path leads past the Holzalm. Immediately behind the Alm, follow the signs for "Gratlspitze." Now along the trail, first through the forest, then through mountain pines to the "Ernarast" and further to the summit (in about 1 hour 45 minutes). Return the same way; the summit is known for its excellent panoramic view and is therefore also ideal for sunrise hikes! Those who want to experience the daily recurring natural spectacle on their own can hike toward the sun on Gratlspitze. The 1,899-meter high lookout mountain towers above the rooftops of the village of Alpbach. The summit impresses with a magnificent panorama: alongside the highest mountain in the Kufstein district, the Großer Galtenberg, you can spot countless peaks from the Karwendel to the Hohe Tauern. Besides 26 church towers, over 800 mountain summits can be seen from here.
