From the car park, head through the gate and follow the gravel path towards the Stöttlalm mountain hut. Before reaching the Stöttlalm, you will come to a fork in the road. Take the route that leads through the forest towards the Boasligbrücke bridge. This good gravel path zigzags up the mountain and covers quite a few vertical metres. At the Boasligbrücke bridge, take the Pfarrer-Kathrein-Steig trail towards Henneberg and then continue along a varied and relatively steep path up to the Gachen Blick viewpoint. There you can enjoy magnificent alpine views and the impressive sight of the Judenklamm gorge below. It is possible to take an alternate route back by following the gravel road via Kohlgrube instead of the path via the Boasligbrücke bridge.

From the car park at the swimming lake in Untermieming, follow the forest road that leads east towards Untermieming. After crossing a small bridge, follow signs for Mühlhof and continue along the paved road that leads between alpine meadows and the edge of the forest up to Obergkapelle chapel. There you'll find a fork in the road. Turn left into the forest and continue along the forest road towards Fiechter Köpfl. For the return hike, we recommend taking the route via the "Plateaublick" viewpoint, which is a lovely place with tables and benches where you can relax while admiring the stunning views of the surrounding landscapes.  Once back at the Obergkapelle chapel, signs lead back to the starting point at the swimming lake. Tips for the swimming lake in Untermieming: Remember your swimwear on summer days so you can cool off in the lake after your hike. Admission is half price with the Welcome Card.

This hike starts at the Arzkasten car park and follows the path past the guesthouse of the same name. After the fountain, turn right and follow the forest road north towards the Lehnberghaus mountain hut. After about 15 minutes, you'll come to a fork in the road. Turn left before the bridge and follow the "Bachweg" trail along the stream and through the forest. The path provides plenty of opportunities to enjoy impressive views of the Mieming Range, for example the Wankspitze peak (2,209 m). After just under an hour, the trail turns sharply right, away from the stream, and a short but quite steep path leads straight up to the forest road. From there, it's only a few metres to the Lehnberghaus mountain hut. For the hike back, you can either double back along the same route or follow the forest road. Optional route extension to "Lacke" viewing platform (1,704 m): From the Lehnberghaus, a hiking trail leads uphill towards "Lacke", first climbing up through alpine meadows and then continuing through the forest. When you arrive at Lacke, you'll find a giant picture frame and an impressive viewing platform with views that stretch far along the Inn Valley and over the Mieming Plateau.  Duration from the Lehnberghaus (one-way): about 30 minutes Optional route extension to "Wankspitze" summit (2,209 m / difficult): This additional section leads from the Lacke viewing platform to Wankspitze peak. Hike north along the wooded ridge and follow the trail as it snakes upwards and finally follows the final ridge right up to the summit cross. The Wankspitze is located in front of the rugged peaks of the Mieming Range and displays high alpine character. It offers fantastic views over the Mieming Plateau and the Inn Valley to Innsbruck. To the south, you can see the Stubai Alps.  Duration from the Lacke viewing platform (one-way): about 1.5 hours.
