Tour suggestions

From us - to the Engalm before slowly left of the Almöden along in the direction of Panoramaweg (power plant house on the left side) then stay on the right side and finally cross the stream.
Go right up the stream until you come to the visible path, then through alpine roses and mountain pines to Kirchl, a total of about 2,5 hours, 400 meters - the view from the Kirchlstein alone is already a dream....

Comfortably through the Almdorf, then to the left, past benches; further to the Brückerl – t hrough the Enger Grundbach leads a narrow irregular trail to the Engergrund; on the left you will see a hidden romantic waterfall, on alpine meadows you can walk around in the background the gigantic Grubenkarwand 2660 m, which leaves a strong impression; back again the same way, about 2 – 2,5 hours in a very comfortable tempo...

A special tour, important is a stop in the Binsalm, as the host takes care of his guests and their mood. For the advanced hikers: it goes further
to the Binshochleger, -Panoramasteig, -Driaggen- magnificent view of the entire Eng valley and the largest Nature Park in Europe in Tyrol.

We take a hiking bus to the parking lot no.7, go the small bridge over (Rissbach). We take the comfortable forest path with several curves up to the Karlalm, in front of us spreads a small gentle green Kessel with the two pastures. If you go left to the Marterl you will have a fantastic view across to the Lalider valley with the impressive rock walls - about 2,5 hours, altitude is not relevant.

We take a bus to the Hinterriss 928 m, we park in the immediate vicinity of the information centre Karwendel (a rewarding-interesting visit + this is free) then we walk comfortably to the Rohn valley pasture, about 1,5 hours; who has not had enough, can go further to the Rappenspitze (Next point).

Left over the almost dry stream bed past the hunting lodge towards Hochalpkopf 1,770 m or Rohnberg 1,771 m - these are gentle green Almbergkopf pastures with a great view.
or turn left instead of right up to the Rappenspitze, whereby the last few meters have to be a bit sure-footed - by the way, it is also called Rappenkammspitze!!!?
called!!!?  Total walking time from Hinterriss approx. 3 hours, difference in altitude 910 m.

Either directly over the Hohljoch 1974 m below the Lalidererwände along to the Falken hut, walking time approx. 3 hours - 758 meters – from easy to medium level of difficulty. Or across the Lalider valley, with a view of fantastic Lalidererwände 2,600 m; at Lalidersniederleger 1526 m - we go right towards the Ladizköpfl (for advanced hikers here would be the great possibility to go to the Mahnkopf 294 m - a wonderful view over the Karwendel- then relaxing walk to the Falken hut; way back as described above. We can take the hiking bus to the Laliderer valley (we save 2 hours) - otherwise total walking time with the Mahnkopf – 5,5 hours, about 850 meters, walking time about 3,5 hours.

To the Karwendelhaus across the 12 km wide Johannes valley to the klein Ahornboden; the Hochalmsattel 1803 m to the Karwendelhaus.
