Circular hike

Hikes through gorges and ravines

The hike through Gleirschklamm Gorge to Möslalm starts at the Nature Park Information Centre in Scharnitz and initially follows the paved Hinterautalstraße. Gleirschklamm Gorge is located at the entrance to the Karwendel Nature Park and impresses with its pristine, almost untouched natural surroundings. After around 400 metres, shortly before a house, the route turns onto the Isarsteig trail, following the signs marked “Gleirschklamm via Scharnitzer Alm”.

The Isarsteig is a short forest path offering repeated views of the Isar River. At the end of the trail, the route continues towards Scharnitzer Alm, an ideal place for a relaxed refreshment break. After a short rest, the hike continues.

From Scharnitzer Alm, the trail follows the Nederweg to the entrance of Gleirschklamm Gorge. A narrow path leads through the wild and romantic gorge, offering sure-footed and experienced hikers a special nature experience. The trail ends at a forest road, where the route turns left and continues to the Gleirschtal forest road. From there, the path follows the valley inwards to the right, leading to Möslalm.

After a well-earned break and refreshments at Möslalm, the return journey begins. First, the route
