Schotting Loop

Start the loop at the Bilchalm lift valley station. From here, head mostly on asphalt towards "Oberaurach." At Hallerwirt, turn towards the "Wildpark." The route initially follows a road, then transitions to a beautiful trail leading to the wildlife park, after which you briefly head downhill towards "Oberaurach." At the first junction, turn left towards "Hochwildalm." The path starts on gravel and then switches to a trail ascending to the alm.

From Hochwildalm, enjoy the view of a large part of the route by looking south into the valley basin. Descend a few meters on gravel, then turn left onto a steep cart track towards "Sonnspitz" and "Staffkogel." At a fork, follow the signs to "Staffalm." The trail is sometimes hard to discern but well-marked. At the alm (hut), instead of continuing on the forest road as marked, turn left onto a path after the alm (hut). Follow the markings, soon coming to signs for "Bochumer Hütte/Kelchalm."

Cross Saalkogel with stunning views towards Kitzbüheler Horn, with wonderful views all year-round. At the ridge, follow the signs to "Laubkogel." The trail runs along the ridge and is a joy to run. Descend from Laubkogel towards "Bochumer Hütte/Kelchalm," a great spot for a rest. From there, continue on a forest road towards "Exenbergalm" and further towards "Obernberg" until reaching Oberaurach. Return to the starting point by retracing the path from Hallerwirt. The loop can be shortened by starting directly from Hallerwirt.
