The Alm has a wonderful view. Homemade cakes and snacks are also served. Of course you will also be provided with a few cool refreshments. As with many alpine pastures, self-service at the counter applies here.

Hefteralm

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Animals to pet and touch. Mini Shettys lie and run around there. Perfect for children. There is also delicious cheesecake and lemonade here. Everything is homemade with ingredients from our own production. Everyone is nice here.

Nice round around the Staffn. If you come by car you can use the free Hochplatten Bahn hiking car park. Nice snack on the Rachelalm.

Once again one of my favorite tours. Short, sweet and very varied.
The paths are beautifully prepared compared to last time. Even the very steep passages like the Buchenreim around 25% and the last steep third are absolutely easy to drive.
Definitely not the last round of records this year!
Happy Sunday everyone

Another mountain bike tour with Lissy. Hochplatte and Piesenhausener Hochalm are always a highlight!
Greetings to all the Aussies
