Circular hike

Hiking tour

The hike starts at Parking Lot P14 or the Katzenkopf Valley Station in Leutasch. The trail first goes left past the Kreithalm. From there, the path continues on Trail No. 3 towards Wildmoosalm, passing through the peaceful Fludertal. The trail winds through a quiet, idyllic landscape until finally reaching the Wildmoos Plateau and Wildmoosalm.

Passing the alpine farm, the trail continues to the Ferienheim Wildmoos (not serviced), where the path branches off right towards Hochmoos. Here, Trail No. 37 leads to a viewpoint offering a great view of the surrounding mountains.

After a break at the viewpoint, the trail continues downhill in a northern direction to the Katzenkopfhütte Mountain Restaurant.
