Route profile: challenging but scenically breathtaking route, full of variety
Surface conditions: gravel tracks, forest trails, asphalt
Route: Cross the bridge the leisure park to the other side of the Ziller (river) and turn right. Just before you reach the Ziller bridge turn left (downstream). Follow the signs for Eugenweg/Holzweg to the Josef chapel. After the chapel, the route follows the hillside along forest trails all the way (apart from a short section on the road) towards the valley. The most interesting part of this route is a short section near the Talbach waterfall where some very steep steps take you up through particularly breathtaking scenery. Just short of the hamlet of Hippach, the trail leads back down into the valley. From the hamlet of Laimach continue to the Laimachersteg (bridge) where the circuit continues left along the Ziller promenade back to the starting point at the leisure park.
