Hiking tour

The hike takes you through the breathtaking Karwendel Gorge and offers stunning views of the untouched nature.

Starting at the Nature Park Information Center in Scharnitz, hikers can look forward to an adventurous tour of about three hours. The journey begins with a one-kilometer walk along Hinterautalstraße to the gravel works. Here, you turn left and follow a small path that winds up the slope in many switchbacks. The climb is challenging, but the view of the Karwendel Gorge makes the effort worthwhile.

The trail eventually leads to a forest road, where you turn right towards the Karwendelhaus. If you want a little variety, you can take a short detour to the chapel Birzelkapelle on the left. Otherwise, stay on the forest road until you reach the right turn for the Karwendelsteg. This path leads further
