Description

The hike starts at Seefeld train station and first leads through the pedestrian zone of the village. Passing cozy cafés and small shops, the route heads towards the Wildsee, where it joins the lake promenade. This scenic path winds through the forest, offering beautiful views of the water along the way.

At a junction, the trail turns right and descends across the Mähder, gentle meadows that lead down to Auland. From there, a gravel road continues towards Mühlberg, where the ascent to the Hochleithenkopf begins. This scenic viewpoint offers a wide-open view over the Inn Valley.

After a short break, the return follows the same route. The path leads back through Mühlberg and Auland, up across the Mähder, and through the forest along the lake promenade, returning to Seefeld train station.
