MTB tour Brixnerhütte
Short description
Mountain biking in Mühlbach is a rustic experience thanks to Alpine villages, secluded huts and idyllic pastures.
Description
In summer, the landscape above Mühlbach has a lot to offer. Mountain bike tours in Vals-Jochtal, such as this one to the Brixnerhütte, are particularly rewarding.
Starting point of the tour
Mühlbach
Destination of the tour
Brixnerhütte
Route description
In Mühlbach in the Eisacktal, cyclists follow the old Valler road and the Valler stream towards Vals. Shortly before Vals, turn left at a small reservoir and cycle along a gravel road to the Jochtal valley station. Here cyclists follow the road to the beautifully situated Fane Alm. You shouldn't turn your back on the rustic alpine village straight away, but make yourself comfortable in one of the cosy alpine huts and gather strength for the next climbs.
The route soon continues through a romantic gorge to the Brixnerhütte, the destination of this cycle tour. You return via the same route. The cycle tour can also be extended to Brixen as required.
