Description

On the Jakob-Gapp-Kreuzweg and the signposted route, you first walk along the medieval Erzsteig steeply uphill to the Keilfeld district on the Wattenberg (30min). Pass the wooden Hisch Chapel and continue to the "Keilhof". There the trail follows the signs "Vögelsberg via Wurzelschell" and descends flat along the road to the Innerachen power station. Here the romantic part leads through forest and meadows to the Vögelsberg inn. The trail leads back to Wattens via the Piepmatzweg.
