Important Notice:
The trail through the Gleirschklamm Gorge is currently closed.
A rockfall has destroyed a bridge, making the path impassable for the time being.

This challenging hike along the edge of the Karwendel range takes you through steep ascents, narrow trails, and the spectacular Gleirschklamm Gorge, with the Solsteinhaus as the perfect destination for a well-deserved break. Those with surefootedness and stamina will be rewarded with breathtaking views and unforgettable nature experiences.

Starting from the Scharnitz Nature Park Information Center, the route leads to the rustic Scharnitzer Alm and continues along the so-called Nederweg to the entrance of the Gleirschklamm Gorge. Caution: the narrow trail through this wild and romantic gorge is suitable only for surefooted hikers! In return, you'll be treated to impressive rock formations, small waterfalls, and crystal-clear waters. After exiting the gorge, the path transitions to a forest road, which you follow left, descending briefly before climbing again to reach the Gleirschtal forest road.

Following this road further into the valley, you'll arrive at the Kristenalm junction. Turn right here and continue to the Kristenalm. If time and energy allow, it's a great spot for a short break before
