Description:
Through the beautiful landscape, the demanding route runs through the Achtal valley up to the mountain. At the top, the Hochalphütte serves regional delicacies along with a unique Alpine panorama. Where skiers make the slopes unsafe in winter, bikers ride down the gravel paths back to the valley in summer (caution: partly steep sections that are technically challenging and may require walking). Below the Breitenbergbahn track, switchbacks wind down to the starting point of the circular route.Safety guidelines:
