Circular hike

+2

The hike starts at Reith train station and follows the railway line at first. The path gently winds through the landscape until it reaches the turnoff to Nördlinger Hütte. Here, the trail branches off to the right, leading onto the Panorama Trail.

Above Reith, a wide view of Hölltal opens up. The path meanders through small forest sections and along steep rock faces, offering stunning views into the valley along the way. Eventually, the route reaches the Kaiserstand, a scenic viewpoint with an impressive panorama over the Inn Valley and the surrounding mountains.

There are several options for the way back:

  • Option 1: The return follows the same route back to the "Frau Häusl" turnoff. Here, a small chapel stands next to a waterfall. From there, the route continues down to the village via the Rosenkranz Trail, a reflective path lined with several wayside shrines.
  • Option 2: The same trail leads all the way back to Reith train station – a simple way to enjoy the scenery once more.
  • Option 3: A more direct but steeper alternative is the Kaiserstand Trail, which descends into the village via gravel and asphalt
