From Achensee to the Inn Valley
As a start, you cycle (to save time) from Pertisau through the Falzturntal to the Gramaialm. There you can leave the bikes and then reach the Lamsenjochhütte on foot.
Day 2 is long and you should avoid time wasters. After the early morning ascent of the Brudertunnel via ferrata, you descend 1200 meters into the Vomperjoch. The following via ferrata called Katzenleiter is not continuously secured. Then the path is long along or through the river before it goes up to the Hallenangeralm, where we eat and spend the night.
Day 3 was a cool down for us, even though it still goes nicely uphill towards the crossing towards the Inn Valley. By train, we returned to Pertisau and our bikes.
