Mountain hikes Brixenbachalm

Brixen im Thale /
Difficulty ratings: medium
Route length: 4.4 km
Duration: 3:30 h

Baby carriage or toboggan? That depends on whether you are hiking to the Brixenbachalm with the little ones in summer or winter. In any case, the cozy alpine pasture is a worthwhile destination for families.

Tour character

Ascent, child's play: from Brixen im Thale, the trail leads two kilometers along the wild and romantic Brixenbach stream, mostly across alpine meadows. The path up to 1,080 meters is also manageable with a baby carriage. The Brixenbachalm snack station with the house number 1 is small, but picturesque and equipped with many pleasing details. The lovingly prepared alpine snack tastes even better here!

Description

We drive by car to the Reiterbrücke in the district of Brixenbach. We always hike to the left, uphill along the Brixenbach stream. This path leads through beautiful Alpine and mountain meadows and is also lined with several stations of the cross representing the suffering of Jesus.  After a short stretch of forest we reach the highest point of this hike, a beautifully situated resting place above the Brixenbachalm with a wonderful view of the Wilder Kaiser and tBrixen’s Sonnberg. We descend to the Brixenbachalm and enjoy a tasty Alpine snack before we make our way back. For the return route   we either choose the same route or we follow the forest path out of the valley, along the Brixenbach stream, until we reach our starting point.
