Gindelalm
Description
The tour starts in the village of Hausham at the fairground, from there it goes on the Gindelalmstrasse to the Gindelalm. The entire ascent is asphalted and has an average gradient of 15%. There are several huts to choose from at the Gindelalm. At the last hut, Annelies serves homemade cakes and the Kaspressknödelsuppe (cheese dumpling soup) is amazing. Strengthened, you roll back down to the edge of the forest on the tarred road of the ascent and then turn right onto the path. Here it is immediately steep and mostly wet and slippery. You cross the road again and again and after a few forks you come back to the road after a left-hand bend. Now follow the road uphill for a while until you turn left onto the forest road towards Holzeralm. Once you reach the Holzeralm, ride past it on the right and take the path. Caution: It gets really steep here. On the forest floor, you descend briefly down a ditch until you reach a forest road again and roll back to the starting point. The trails range in difficulty from S2 to S3.
Note: If possible, the tour should not be tackled at weekends, as there are a lot of day-trippers on the trail. On the plus side, most hikers do not use the steep trails for the ascent to the Gindelalm.
