Open: High altitude cross-country ski trail in autumn and spring. During the winter season the high altitude cross-country ski trail can be groomed for groups of 20+ on request.

Altitude training: between 2,690 m and 2,740 m you can improve your stamina over 50 metres of elevation gain

Infrastructure and facilities: there are changing rooms and space to wax your cross-country skis as well as toilets at Mittelbergjoch railway station.

Course of the trail: Access via Glacier Express up to 2,840 m (please note that special tickets for cross-country skiers can be purchased). Once on the glacier you can reach the top station of the 6-seater chairlift in around 100 m. This chairlift will take you to the start of the glacier cross-country skiing trail. The access point is behind the bottom station of the the 8-seater gondola lift on 2,690 m and the trail runs in more or less even ascents up to its highest point at 2,740 m. The chairlift will comfortably return you to the mountain station of the Glacier Express.

From the starting point hike to Piller Moor until you reach the fountain. Then follow the signposts to Waldweiher via forest roads and idyllic steep forest paths to this natural gem, the Waldweiher pond. Follow the trail around the pond until you reach the forest road. Return to your staring point via the same route on the last section.

The walk starts at Galtwiesen car park. From here, walk along a forest path in the direction of Wennerberg. After approximately 200 metres turn off to the right and follow another forest path to Weiler Krabichl/Leins. Once there, turn right again via a farm track through meadows and close the loop by returning back to the starting point. Why not finish off your walk by stopping at Jausenstation Waldeck for some refreshments?

The starting point is opposite the fire station, to the right of the river Mühlbach. At the beginning of the trail there is a slight ascent, most of the part there are low slopes. At the first fork follow the path on the right until you reach the hamlet of Schön. There you follow the signs (Schönlarch) and cross the Pitztaler Landesstraße. Via a path you reach the hamlet of Schönlarch. At the car dealer Reinstalder, cross the Pitztaler Landesstraße again and return to the starting point at the fire station via the hamlet "Niederhof".
