Look forward to the new Schlender Trail, the much-desired connection between the Gampe Almen and the Hühnersteign. A super fun trail that now connects the two idyllic mountain pastures. You can now easily get from the "Hühnersteige Alm" directly to the Gampe Almen. The red single trail runs without any major difficulties, initially through open terrain and later winding its way through the forest. Halfway along, bikers have the option of leaving the singletrail early to head towards the "Stabele Alm" and finally to the "Ohn Line". This section has jump variations. However, if you ride as far as the Gampe Almen, you can take a well-earned break at the rustic huts with their large sun terrace. Please note: The section from the junction to the Gampe Alm can be travelled in both directions. So watch out for oncoming traffic.

Author’s recommendation

Stopping at the two pastures, Gampe Thaya or Gampe Alm, is well worth it!
