Tour description

From the outskirts of Brand (Palüdbahn parking lot), this loop trail leads to the left of the Alvierbach stream into the valley toward the so-called “Schattenlagant”—a beautiful, peaceful valley with a special winter atmosphere. The unprepared hiking trail continues to wind slightly uphill until you reach the Schattenlagant road a little above the "Untere Schattenlagantalpe". From here it is a short stretch on the road, which is prepared in winter, to the Schattenlagant hut. Return the same way or, if conditions are avalanche-safe, along the Schattenlagant road.

Please note: Due to high avalanche danger, this trail may be closed. Information about this can be found in the winter report or at Brandnertal Tourismus.

Bus line 580 to stop "Palüdbahn"
