Obernussdorf /
Difficulty ratings: easy
Route length: 3.5 km

Not too far, not too steep, up with the gondola, with a lake and beautiful scenery ... no matter what excuse you have, this relaxed winter hike always has the perfect counter-argument. Go on, let yourself be persuaded ...

Tour character

Easy winter hike for the whole family. The fantastic view of the Kögele and the mighty Rosskogel behind it accompanies you on every meter of the fine route, which is also easy for the little ones to master. A reservoir lake, which can be comfortably circumnavigated, farmhouses and a pretty chapel await you. It's worth taking a short break in Gfas for a great view of the Inn Valley. Return along the same route. If you like, you can stop off at the Sulzstich inn or continue along the road to Stiglreith, which is closed to traffic in the winter months.
