Hiking tour

Circular hike

From the Nature Park Information Center in Scharnitz, the path leads to the rustic Scharnitzer Alm and continues along the Nederweg to the entrance of the Gleirschklamm Gorge. Important: The narrow trail through the wild and romantic gorge is only suitable for sure-footed hikers! The path impresses with its majestic rock formations, small waterfalls, and crystal-clear water. After the gorge, the path turns right and climbs up to the Oberbrunnalm. Alternatively, you can take a footpath from the forest road through the Isertal, which meets the forest road again a bit below the Alm.

From the Oberbrunnalm, the trail steeply ascends via a narrow path to the Zäunlkopf; the roughly ten-minute detour to the "beautiful view" lives up to its promise. Afterwards, you can descend via the Mittagskopf to the former mountain station of the Mühlberg lift and follow the signs back to Scharnitz along the forest road. A small detour to the "Heart" viewpoint at Mühlberg can also be included. For sure-footed hikers, the route through the Bärenklamm is also recommended. Here, you can reach the parking lot P4 in Scharnitz directly via
