    Wunderschöne Tour abseits des Skitubbels. Ich war teilweise ganz allein. Perfekt, um die Seele baumeln zu lassen. Der Weg ist mit griffigen Winterschuhen gut machbar, mit Krampen geht's noch besser.

    tolle Winterwanderung mit genialem Panorama. Ab Relleck kann man auch weiterlaufen und muss nicht den gleichen Weg zurück gehen 😉 Im Sommer, wenn die Straßen nicht schneebedeckt sind, evtl. nicht so schön.

    Der Einstieg befindet sich direkt an der Bergstation auf der Linken Seite. Die Route ist gut ausgeschildert und präpariert. Auf der Route sind 2 größere Anstiege und eine Pistenüberquerung sowie ein Schlepplift. Läßt sich gut laufen, auch für Familien. Die angegebene GPS Route ist aber nicht mehr ganz aktuell, an diese Koordinaten sollte man sich nicht halten und eher den Schildern folgen... ;) PS: Die in einer Rezension erwähnten Halte-Seile zum "hochziehen" sind Absperr-Seile zum Wildschutz...

    Eine schöne Wanderung mit toller Sicht auf die Berge. Da mein Hotel in Galtür lag, wanderte ich von Galtür nach Wirl (etwa 2 km). Den Wanderweg gibt es auf beiden Seiten der Bundesstrasse. Danach ging es bergauf auf die Bieler Höhe. Es war wunderbar ruhig, fern von Strassenverkehr. Vielleicht etwas eintönig, vor allem wenn man bereits auf dem Rückweg ist. Aber die schöne Bergpanorama und die frische Bergluft machen alles wieder wett. Am Stausee gibt es Einkehrmöglichkeiten, zwei Restaurants, die auch im Winter offen sind. Den kurzen Spaziergang am Damm und anschließend durch den Tunnel weiter dem See entlang fand ich nicht so spektakulär, dafür aber sehr anstrengend und kräftezehrend

    Die Runde ist gemütlich. Wenn man sich an die vorgesehene Richtung hält ist der Anstieg schön kurz. Schön am Kristberg ist, dass die Skifahrer und Snowboarder sich oberhalb des Rundweges aufhalten.
