People are happy to walk miles for a portion of delicious “Graukäse - Grey Cheese”. For example, 11 kilometres by mountain bike from Scharnitz to the Mösl Alm. Alternately, you can walk to this beautiful alpine farm, located in Karwendel on the northern slopes of the Nordkette Mountains. Of course it is not the cheese alone that draws so many people to the Mösl Alm every summer, although it is undeniably a mitigating factor. Another is the stunning nature: Vast forests, bubbling streams, steep rock faces, wild and romantic canyons and gentle meadows delight visitors each season anew, as well as those running the alpine farm, who can’t think of a more beautiful place in the world themselves.
