Tour character

Not short, but entertaining: The nine-kilometre circular tour starting from Inneralpbach via Stettauer Almen and Farmkehralm is one of the most beautiful alpine hikes in the Alpbachtal. After a contemplative stopover at the Stettauer Almen, which are exclusively used for alpine farming, the forest path and trail lead to the 400-year-old Farmkehralm. In a rustic atmosphere with a view of the Grosser Galtenberg, guests can enjoy an excellent snack and freshly cooked Tyrolean fare.
