Mountainbike holiday in Berwang

For many hikers, the Berwang-Bichlbach region at the foot of the rugged Thaneller is the perfect starting point for varied tours. Around Berwang, the highest village in the Tiroler Zugspitz Arena, nestled in a sunny valley basin in the middle of the Lechtal Alps, you will discover hiking trails of the most varied character. There are the leisurely, often pram-friendly walking trails in the Berwanger and Rotlechtal valleys, the pleasure hiking trails to the most beautiful viewpoints, exciting circular hiking trails, family hikes and spectacular mountain climbs that make hiking in the Alps a unique experience. Whatever you decide to do: Berwang's network of hiking trails covers 300 kilometres of well-signposted trails. 

If you spend your hiking holiday in Austria with the  Bergbahnen Berwang, you have already conquered the first metres in altitude, as your holiday resort is located at 1,342 metres above sea level. You can easily cover further metres in altitude with the Berwang cable cars. In summer you can take the Almkopfbahn cable car in Bichlbach or the Sonnalmbahn cable car in Berwang.
This saves you an energy-sapping ascent or a strenuous descent at the end of a mountain hike. Most hikes in Berwang-Bichlbach (Tiroler Zugspitz Arena) can be undertaken from April to October, only the higher mountain trails have limited access in spring and autumn.

At the tourist office in Berwang and at all information centres in the Tiroler Zugspitz Arena, you can obtain extensive maps, some free of charge, to help you plan your hikes and mountain tours.
