Description

This leisurely circular trail starts at the lift car park at the Söll valley station. From there, follow the signs in the direction of Scheffau. Enjoy the view of Lake Ahornsee along the tarmac road until you reach the neighbourhood of Bach. Having already left the lake behind you, continue up the road for a short distance, where you then turn left onto a meadow path that takes you across the shady side of Söll towards Scheffau. Take advantage of the peace and quiet along the Schattseitweg to take a deep breath and marvel at the view of the Kaiser mountains. Once you reach the Küchlpoit stand, continue along the meadow path, past the trees, until you reach a tarmac road. Turn left here and follow the road in the direction of Hauniger Dörfl. The next signpost will lead you back to Söll via the farm shops at Poiderhof and Keilhof. Before the Jägerbrücke bridge in the Gänsleit district, keep left and follow the Schottwerg to the Ahornsee lake and continue back to the starting point at the lift car park.
