Morning sport has "gold in the mouth" - this short, easy trail running tour to the Hochaster Alm at the entrance to the Pitztal valley is ideal for getting you going at the start of the day.
With an ascent of around 600 meters, this trail running route is one of the easy routes in Tyrol. On gravel and forest paths, you first head to the unmanaged Timler Alm and then on to the Hochaster Alm, where you have definitely earned a refreshment stop. You can also enjoy a great view of the Oberinntal valley from the Alm.
This “beginner’s circuit” starts off at the Plattenrain car park following a forest road just behind the catered mountain hut Puitalm at Plattenrain in the direction of the non-catered mountain hut Timler Alm. Once there, there is a slight downhill section in the direction of Imsterberg and at the fork follow the slightly steeper ascent up to a point just below the catered mountain hut Venet Alm. Then continue to run on the signposted path in the direction of the catered mountain hut Hochaster Alm and return to your starting point. Duration: 1 h 30 min - 2 h
