Follow the path to the Hochthörle Hut. Relax and enjoy the hut atmosphere. Continue along the Thörle loop (do not head towards Eibsee) with views of the Eibsee. From Pohnöfen, head to the viaduct and up to the Tuftlalm with a 500m climb. Tuftlalm - our last hut for today!

Sebensee

FACTS: Mountain bike tour, moderate difficulty. Distance: 30 km. Riding time: 3-3.5 hours. Elevation gain: 910 m. ATTENTION: During peak season, you won't find any secluded spots. Start at our bike shop, through the moor to Ehrwald - straight across the bridge, take the lift to the Ehrwalder Almbahn cable car, then past the cable car and Brentalm, follow the road up to the Ehrwalder Alm and the Tiroler Haus. Continue uphill on the road towards the Hochfeldern Alm, then turn right to the Igelsee (Hedgehog Lake). This lake is usually dry in summer, but you'll often see brown cattle there. Continue past the Igelsee towards the Sebensee. Sebenseealm: a short break is recommended - it's been comfortably renovated and reopened in 2023, and now it's not far to the Sebensee. On the way back, take the road towards the Tiroler Haus/Ehrwalder Alm and make a detour to the Almsee (Alm Lake). Then continue downhill and through the moor back to the bike shop.

Bike Park Lermoos

Lermoos:

Blindsee Trail

Difficult singletrack, 7km (S2-S3). Riding time: approx. 1 hour. Start: Grubigalm. End: Blindsee parking lot. Elevation loss: 650m. Wonderful mountain panorama with a refreshing dip! The Blindsee Trail requires confident riding skills – nature remains nature here – the trail was built without artificial elements, but does include a few challenging turns. Start: Free parking lot at the Grubigstein cable cars and take the cable car to the Grubigalm. Take the access road on route 861 or the Grubigalm Trail, then follow the signs. For a more athletic option, you can also cycle up to the Grubigalm on routes 804 and 860. The endpoint is Blindsee or the Blindsee parking lot – from here you can take MTB route 838 to Biberwier and then MTB route 867 back to Lermoos.

Forest Aisle

Intermediate singletrack, 3.3 km (S2). Riding time: approx. 15 min. Start: Grubigalm. End: Lermoos valley station. Elevation loss: 370 m. Do you like flowy, winding trails? Then this is the right trail for you. From Grubigalm onwards, there's hardly any straight riding. If you want to ride up to Grubigalm yourself, you should allow about 2 hours extra riding time – alternatively, take the mountain lifts up and enjoy the view. From Grubigalm, the Forest Aisle Trail is signposted. It leads across ski slopes, green alpine meadows, and shady forests. Afterwards, you have the option of taking the "Schlägle" singletrack (MTB route 855) or the ferry road down to Lermoos.

Grubig Alm Trail

Intermediate difficulty 4.4km (S2) Riding time: approx. 15 min Start: Grubigstein cable car mountain station, Lermoos End: Grubigalm forest road Elevation loss: 640m Arriving at the mountain station high above Lermoos, enjoy the view. The trail descends mostly along the ski slope. It is suitable for both experienced riders and beginners. Alternatively, you can ride up via MTB routes 804, 860, and 861 – this takes approximately 2.5-3 hours and requires good physical condition. The trail starts directly at the mountain station. Upon reaching the Grubigalm at 1,695 m, keep to the right and follow the signs No. 864 - it leads into the Forest Aisle Trail, where you can extend the fun or continue a little further and after a short stretch on the road you can decide again whether to continue on the road or take the Schlägle singletrack to Lermoos.

Grubig Alm Trail

Intermediate difficulty 2.7km (S1-S3) Riding time: approx. 30 min Start: Grubigstein cable car middle station, Lermoos End: Lermoos valley station Elevation loss: 360m Another largely natural trail with plenty of roots and rocky sections – this one will really test your suspension! Forest floor, rock crossings, and fast corners. This challenging trail is even divided into three categories (black, red, blue) – it's not the best choice for your first ride. A bit of experience is definitely needed here. Take the Grubigstein cable car up to the middle station (alternatively, take MTB route 804 uphill, which takes about 1 hour). From the middle station, follow the signs for the trail to the well-marked entrance. With gradients of up to 33%, jumps, banked turns, and rock crossings, there's something for everyone. Beginners can also bypass the difficult descents. Finally, it was rounded off with a "Big Jump" - which of course should only be used by those with sufficient experience.
