Directions
The tour starts at the Bike Academy Infopoint and leads uphill past the Sexten parish church to the Mitterberg fortress. After a short, quite tough climb, the route continues relatively flat towards the alpine meadows. After about 20 minutes, you reach the so-called "Saumahd" (1,750m), where you turn left towards the Klammbach Alm. A wide forest path connects the Klammbach Alm with the Nemes Alm, the next destination of the tour. As a small highlight, hiking trail No. 13 can also be chosen, although this trail is partly more demanding, with a short carrying passage of about 100m. From the Nemesalm, the route goes via the Saumahd and then via the Almenweg down to Moos and back to the starting point.
