Hut hike

This moderately difficult hike takes you through varied landscapes with plenty of scenic views. The starting point is the Naturpark Info Center in Scharnitz. The trail begins by turning right towards Café Länd. Across from the café, the path climbs slightly, then turns right onto a dirt road. From there, head left towards Parking Lot P4 Mühlberg. After the last house on the left, a narrow, sometimes steep trail begins to climb in switchbacks through Bärenklamm (watch for the signs). This trail, which requires sure-footedness, goes through shady forest up to the Mühlberg Forest Road.

You can take a short detour to the Heart Viewpoint on Mühlberg. Continue uphill to the old Mühlberg lift station. From there, a narrow path on the left leads to Mittagskopf and Zäunlkopf. A quick 10-minute detour will reward you with stunning views of the Karwendel valleys. From Zäunlkopf, the descent begins, following signs to Oberbrunnalm.

The return route takes you through the Gießenbach Valley along the forest road towards Scharnitz. In Gießenbach, cross the main road and turn right onto the forest road back to Scharnitz.
