Hiking without a car

Grossarltal is known for its large number of serviced mountain huts, a total of around 40 huts, which you can reach on around 400 km of marked hiking trails. In addition to the numerous mountain huts, you can also hike to many peaks or pictures mountain lakes.

Many starting points of the tours can be reached by public bus lines no. 540 and no. 541.

Another option for reaching the starting points of the hikes without your own car is the hiking taxi. In summer, the taxis offer journeys to the starting points as well as to the mountain pastures.
