Grossarl: Bichlalm - Remsteinkopf

There are several ways to get to the Bichlalm: The easiest starts in the Ellmautal valley above the Hotel Lammwirt. It is a very leisurely walk along the goods road through the forest to the Bichlalm. Another option is to start directly from the centre of Grossarl via the Europatisch. And the sportier option, which we have chosen for this tour suggestion, goes from the Finsterwald farm via the Himmelsleiter to the Bichlalm. The Himmelsleiter leads through the forest and is very steep in places. Once you reach the top of the forest road, you need to pause for a moment, as the panorama up there is like something out of a picture book. Continue along the forest track to the Bichlalm.

Continue uphill along a beautiful hiking trail to the Remsteinkopf. You must be free from giddiness for the last few metres to the cross, as the trail descends relatively steeply on the right-hand side towards Buchbachkar. The view from up here is simply unique. In autumn in particular, you may even spot deer or roe deer or hear a stag "rutting" (=roaring), as the Buchbachkar is one of the areas with the most game in our valley. Return along the same route. At the Bichlalm you can fortify yourself with a tasty alpine snack before returning to the starting point of the tour.
