Easy cycling route following the trail of Kramsach's thermal waters. Water is a cultural asset! Explore the beautiful nature around the streams, fountains and lakes along the KulTOUR Heilwasser route in Kramsach.
The tour starts at the Inn Valley cycle path no. 2, at the Rattenberg/Kramsach bridge over the Inn. Cycle towards Kramsach and follow the signs to the “Heil- & Thermalwasserbrunnen” (thermal water fountain) in Kramsach/Waidach. Cycling to the left of the Brandenberg River the route leads towards Kramsach centre and on to the Kramsach Kneipp facilities and the former "Holztrift" (wood used to be transported down the river). Following a short uphill cycle, pass the defunct Sonnwendjochbahn and continue along the L4 towards Brandenberg/Aschau. At the second wooden bridge cross the river and continue towards the Mariathal Basilica and the Kramsach lakes. Bear right at the mill (first mentioned in a document in 1658) water wheel the mill uphill via "Seebühel", through a short stretch of woods and on to Lake Reintal. Take the main road to cycle back towards Kramsach and the “Heil- & Thermalwasserbrunnen” (thermal water fountain). Take the same route you took to start the tour to return to the starting point.
Alternatively, cycle along the hiking/biking trail to the east of Lake Reintal near the camping sites for approx. 5 minutes to the Museum of Tyrolean Farmhouses. A visit to the largest open-air museum in the Tyrol is always worthwhile (duration approx. 1 1/2 hours).
