Mountain Bike Ride
Kellerjoch Ride, Hochfügen

This 55-kilometre-long ride around the Kellerjoch mountain begins in Fügen and is aimed at mountain bike riders with good fitness levels. The riding is tough at times, but the views of the Zillertal Valley and the Lower Inn Valley are a fine reward for all that hard work. The highest point on the ride is the Loassattel ridge, where the beautiful Alpengasthof Loas guesthouse offers a good place to stop for a rest.

Trail description

Leaving from the "Festhalle" building in Fügen, route 411 leads in a southerly direction to the settlement of Sankt Pankraz, past Kleinboden and towards Kupfnerberg. At the fourth switchback corner, just before the Jausenstation Oberhaus, stay right and continue for 9.5 kilomtres along the banks of the Finsingbach stream through thick forest to Hochfügen. Take a sharp 180° turn in Hochfügen, ride back for a few metres along the Hochfügenstraße road in a northerly direction and then head left onto the forest trail (route 412). The trail leads uphill to the Loassattel ridge at 1,690 metres above sea level. Ride past the Alpengasthof Loas guesthouse 3.8 kilometres downhill along the Loasweg, which spater merges with the Pillbergstraße road. In the Truferwald forest, at around 1,200 metres above sea level, turn right onto route 4001 (Schwazer Waldrunde). Several switchback corners lead downhill towards Zintberg, where riders switch to route 416. This heads uphill again, past the Jausenstation Pirchnerast and the Plumpmooshütte towards Mehrerkopf. The descent initially leads along route 416 and then route 414, past the Gasthof Kogelmoos to Gallzein. When you reach the village, stay right and take route 418 via Hochgallzein and Troi back into the valley. Continue on through Maurach riding east, via the Rotholzer Landesstraße to Strass and via Schlitters all the way back to the starting point in Fügen.
