Brief description of Jungholz:
Jungholz came to Tirol as an enclave in German territory in 1342 through the sale of Wertach resident Hermann Häselin to Heinz Lochpühler from the Tannheimer Tal. The community of 300 inhabitants is Tirol's first herb mountain village. In summer, it is especially the hikes and the herbs that make Jungholz attractive. In winter, snow enchants the mountain village. Hiking and skiing are on the agenda. Thanks to the modern snowmaking system, snow reliability is guaranteed.Directions:
The parking lot in Jungholz in the district of Langenschwand is the starting point of the hike. Just a short distance towards the center of Jungholz, the path branches off to the right behind the chapel. A short ascent brings us to the panoramic trail over Jungholz. Past the Kneipp facility, the idyllic moor pond, and the water basin for snowmaking, we reach the Reuter Wanne junction. The path winds beautifully through the forest and across clearings that repeatedly offer new views. The gravel path steadily climbs and has several branches, all of which are well signposted. Further up the wide road turns into a simple hiking trail that is still easy to walk on. Then there is a somewhat steeper section through the forest. After this passage, the summit cross is already visible and is reached after a short time. Despite the low elevation of the summit, there is a beautiful panoramic view. The descent goes over the grassy slope, which seems to lead directly to Jungholz. But then the path turns left, and relatively quickly the hut of Obere Reuter Wanne is reached. After a few meters on the road, one should not miss the turnoff to Alpe Stubental. Mostly through the forest, the path leads us along the flank of Pfeifferberg to Alpe Stubental. After a rest, we walk the rest of the way back to Langenschwand on the asphalt road. We leave Jungholz with many positive impressions. To our left, we see the Sorgschrofen, the only connection from Jungholz to the Tannheimer Tal, and it makes us think a bit.
