Description

From the starting point, walk along a forest path, always bearing right to the catered mountain hut Kieleberalm (1,761 m). After taking a leisurely break there and enjoying the panoramic view of the lower Pitztal valley, retrace your steps for a short while following signposts to the Naturparkhaus [Nature Park Centre]. After the first bend, turn off left by a forest track, that takes you almost directly to the Nature Park Centre (1,560 m). 
A public bus will take you back to the bus stop Matzlewald. From there it is only a short walk along the road to return to the car park by the sawmill.
