Hiking and Biking in Summer

Pasture Paradise Gaistal Valley

The Pasture Paradise Gaistal Valley in Leutasch shows its most beautiful side in summer: nestled between majestic peaks and gentle alpine meadows, the valley offers ideal conditions for hiking and biking. Whether you prefer a relaxed scenic route or a more demanding tour – everyone will find their favorite trail here. Numerous rustic huts and alpine pastures invite you to stop and enjoy regional delicacies amid a stunning natural setting. The Gaistal Valley is the perfect retreat for nature lovers seeking relaxation, outdoor activity, and authentic Tyrolean alpine charm during the summer months.

This glorious high valley is, on the one hand, renowned for its many mountain pastures where animals graze during the summer months and, on the other, as a unique, pristine mountain habitat. This area still boasts vast living territories for roe deer, red deer and chamois, while golden eagles nest in the walls of the Wetterstein mountain range. The Gaistal Valley was also one of the favourite places of the renowned poet Ludwig Ganghofer, whose hunting lodge was situated above the pastures of the Tillfußalm mountain hut. With his famous novel „Das Schweigen im Walde“, he paid a worthy tribute to the valley. He wrote many other works in his hunting lodge Hubertus, a place in which he liked to retreat, seek relaxation and indulge in his passion of hunting.

The Gaistal is known as an alpine paradise and lives up to its name: here, one alpine pasture after another worth visiting awaits hikers and cyclists. The most rewarding hike in the Gaistal is therefore the Hochalmen-Rundwanderung: it connects 7 (!) of the most beautiful alpine pastures in the idyllic valley. And all this on wonderful paths. What awaits you on this round and which highlights you should not miss, you can find out here.
