Description

From the center of St. Johann in Tirol, walk to Bärnstetten where Tirolean farmhouses and modern architecture coexist. Continue along a sunny trail into a less populated area the Hinterkaiser and further on to the Rummlerhof. Occasionally views of St. Johann in Tirol open up. However, more striking are the views of the Niederkaiser range and the rugged Kaiser mountains. The trail continues through a quiet forest, which is especially beautiful when it’s covered in snow and frost. At the crossing, it’s a short walk to the picturesque Granderhöfe farmhouses. The central building dates from the gothic period and boasts some interesting frescoes from the 18th century. The hike then continues to the hamlet of Rettenbach. At Innsbruckerstraße, pick up the footpath along River Reither Ache and follow it back to of St. Johann in Tirol.
