Description

Over wide meadows and along idyllic forest edges, this hike takes you on a journey into the authenticity of Leutasch. It's perfect for anyone wanting to experience the Leutasch Valley in its full winter glory.

The route spans nearly 7 kilometers, leading from Weidach through quiet landscapes, past traditional farms and gently rising meadows. The starting point is right by the parking lot at the football field. From here, a broad path heads west, passing through the Kirchplatzl area and the cozy inns Kühtaierhof and Birkegg. Soon, you’ll reach the scenic meadow path that runs along the forest edge, leading you to the expansive Plaikner meadows – a true insider tip for winter hikers. The trail continues through the small village of Leutasch Klamm, where Klammstraße invites you to take a peaceful stroll through the quiet hamlet.

The return route goes through an open larch forest, which has a clear, serene atmosphere, especially in winter. Back at Kirchplatzl, you take the same path to return to the starting point in Weidach. For those who want more, the ErlebnisWelt Alpenbad Leutasch offers a well-deserved wellness break.

Highlights and scenic spots: 
• Plaikner meadows
• Winter larch forests

Shortcut options:
• The loop can be shortened at various points along the meadow path.
