Description

The start is in Tumpen at the parking lot by the primary school. From there, follow the road towards Grube – to the left, a forest path leads up past the Tumpen Waterfall. At the last crossroads, turn left towards the sidewalk or the Front Tumpen Alm. Follow the forest path past the Front Tumpen Alm to the Rear Tumpen Alm. The Alm is not managed! The highlight on this quiet and varied path is the Tumpen Waterfall. The Front Tumpen Alm offers a place to stop halfway for a break.
