The small alpine pasture round is a quiet nature path, almost constantly accompanied by wild streams. The half-day route leads through extensive forest sections of the Hochwald. One of the highlights is the Hochwaldalm, where cattle and horses graze in the summer. Due to the shorter distance, the path is also suitable for families and beginners.

An adventure hike to make your mouth water. Mostly narrow paths. Here, the ground sometimes bounces like a trampoline. Roaring streams, quiet spots, the whispering forest - a path full of peace, seclusion, and inner reflection. It's good to know that the once-smugglers' paths now only serve to "smuggle" personal experiences. Still thrilling.
