Mountainbike-Tour Bike Trail Tirol Etappe 06: Ehrwald-Scharnitz

Description

Route: Ehrwalder Almbahn - Erhwalder Alm - Tillfussalm - Gaistalalm - Klamm - Oberweidach - Lake Weidachsee - Fluder valley - Giessenbach - Scharnitz

Route description:
First you cycle slightly uphill to the valley station of the Ehrwalder Almbahn. From here, the route continues uphill on route no. 813 to the Ehrwalder Alm (1.5h from Ehrwald). Alternatively, you can use the gondola lift. From the Ehrwalder Alm, continue uphill along the main trail, in two hairpin bends to the highest point at 1,600m above sea level. Shortly after, at the prominent turnoff to the Seeben Alm, keep left in the direction of Leutasch (551). During a detour to the Tillfussalm or Gaistalalm you will be rewarded with an impressive view of the steeply sloping north walls of the Mieminger chain.

Continue on the main trail through the Gaistal, past the toll booth, to the Leutasch district of Klamm. Here you cycle over the bridge to Obern and orient yourself at the "Hotel Bergland". Now take the next road towards Leutasch Oberweidach (2h from Ehrwalder Alm). The path soon leads into the forest and again you cross a road, then you turn left into a forest path. From here you always follow the signs "539 Mooserweg Seepromenade" or "Leutasch Weidach". After passing the Weidach lake you reach the main road. Follow this road for about 350 meters and then immediately turn right again "541 Katzenkopf- Fluder". Now follows an ascent in the forest over 200 meters in altitude and a descent through the Fluder valley to the road. This is followed briefly in a northerly direction until you branch off onto the road to Scharnitz. Shortly before you reach the main road, you turn left into the meadows near Giessenbach and cycle the last kilometers to the stage destination in Scharnitz (1.5h from Leutasch Weidach).
