Swiss Trac Tour: The start of this circular route is the car park at the pond “Landschaftsteich” Piller. From there, follow the main road for a short while before turning off to the hamlet of Fuchsmoos on the left. Continue to follow the wide tarmac road uphill. After approx. 0.5 km leave the tarmac road. The route now follows an easy gravel path that is crossed by diagonal water bars at regular intervals. A small restaurant by the fishpond can be reached in ca. 20 min. The path now descends again, at first along a gravel path, before returning to a tarmac path. The tarmac path continues through the hamlet of Piller down to the main road. Once there, return to the car park following the main road, which can be busy at times.

Swiss Trac Tour: It is a level road to get to the ticket office at the valley station of Hochzeiger gondola from the car park. From there, take a lift to the gondola access on the first floor. Right next to the lift on the ground floor is a wheelchair-accessible toilet. Entry to the gondola is via a mobile ramp. The gondola can accommodate wheelchairs with a maximum width of 60 cm. The Swiss-Trac can be transported in the same gondola or in the following gondola by accompanying persons. At the top station the gondola staff will again be of assistance to exit the gondola with a mobile ramp. Adjacent to the top station of the gondola you will find the catered mountain hut “Zeigerrestaurant”. It can be accessed across a meadow, which is hard to navigate and then via a ramp with a considerable gradient. There is a wheelchair-accessible toilet in the basement which is, however, not easy to find as it is not incorporated in the signposted area. Please note that during the summer part of the lift is covered by banners and making it hard to spot. The toilet is spacious and offers enough room for turning circles.

Starting at “Zeigerrestaurant” follow the beautifully laid-out 1.5 km long “Zirben” [pine] trail. Please note that there are large sections with a steep incline on loose gravel surface and taking this route is only advisable for experienced Swiss-Trac users. The steeper section passing the “Zirbenzapfen” [pine cone] with a big slide can, however, be bypassed by only taking part of the route. After approx. 2/3 of the trail, you will reach another catered mountain hut, “Tanzlalm”. Unfortunately neither the restaurant nor the ground floor toilets are suitable for wheelchair users. The last third of the trail back to the “Zeigerrestaurant” features a steep uphill section. 

Thiscircular winter hiking trail starts and ends at theZeigerrestaurant at the intermediate station of the Hochzeiger gondola. The approx. 700 m long hike leads in the direction of Zollberg through a pine forest and returns to the intermediate station. The first opportunity to have a break is the Zeigerrestaurant and the catered mountain hut Tanzalm  which is equally inviting is only a few minutes' walk. 

Starting point of this hike is the car park at Wald primary school (Volksschule Wald) and as the name of this hike suggests the route has street lighting all through the night and is therefore perfect for an evening or early morning walk. At the start walk past the church and the residential houses until you reach a flat, tarmacked road that connects the two hamlets Mairhof and Mauri. At the end of this road, turn off to the left and return via a through road to the starting point. Another plus of this walk is that it’s on a pavement most of the time.
