View over Wallgau and the Karwendel Mountains

Highlight • Viewpoint

Wallgau is located in front of the Karvendel and is a very beautiful village 😊. Old houses with beautiful paintings, landlords and a church are here!

The now uninhabited island is a natural forest reserve and nature reserve. Enter is not allowed. But just for the view of the island and the towering Herzogstand behind it worth a break.

June 12, 2022,Fahrradtour zum Grossen Ahornboden und in die Eng, Wallgau
Today I drove from Vorderriss up to the Grosser Ahornboden and into the Eng. That was again a dead end, you have to turn around at the top and then you have a very nice descent down to the Isar. Then I made a detour to Wallgau.

Another tour in the Karwendel today: from Wallgau, we take the toll road to Vorderriß and then to the Eng-Almen. First along the Isar River, then along the Rißbach stream, always with the Karwendel mountains in view.

The route is a paradise for road bikers; they whizz up and down it in droves. With a mountain bike, you're immediately an …

Let's go to Engalm. With bright sunshine and a pleasant cycling temperature, we are allowed to cycle through the "Wallgau - Canada" zone again today. Then we can comfortably ride up to Engalm by e-bike. The Rissbach is enchanting, just as turquoise as its sister Isar😊. We keep going higher until suddenly there was a line of cars in front …

Today we should go to the karwendel, to the big Ahornboden. The starting point was a parking lot in Wallgau and initially we went on the toll road to Vorderriß. From there the road continues upwards. All clear: the elevation profile suggests a steep incline, but in fact it's more or less constantly going up, so it's not a big …

Today we toured Engalm from the car park on the toll road. Very well-developed road, little traffic, over 25 km of constant uphill walking, but the way back was all the quicker. Fantastically beautiful landscape and mountain scenery. Almost no benches along the whole route was not so nice but once again: you can't have everything. But the weather was …

The beginning of November is a bit too late to enjoy the "Indian Summer"🍁 in little Canada 🇨🇦, which is what the upper Isar and Rißtal valleys including Ahornboden are called. The beginning/middle of October would be the best time for it. The ascent to the Binsalm is very steep and rough. 24-30%, so it's OK for e-bikers, but biobikers? …

After two much-needed days of housework 🫣 I'm rounding off my two weeks of vacation with a nice little bike ride 👍 In glorious weather, I hop on the train towards the mountains. I get off in Klais and follow the Isar cycle path. Luckily, the toll road is quiet and the area is already really beautiful. But it gets …
