Description
After leaving the town of Krimml behind you as you head in the direction of the Gerlos Alpenstrasse, in roughly 2 km you will come to a turnoff on the left-hand side, taking you to a lane which runs in the direction of Krimmler Achental. Now comes the most physically challenging stage, a climb alongside the Krimml Waterfalls as far as the Anna Tunnel (length 300 m, unlit). From there, a hiking and biking path runs parallel to the Krimmler Ache, past rustic huts and refreshment points to the valley head. There, you have the opportunity to head up to the Warnsdorfer Hütte or, if you prefer, backtrack to the first turnoff, then make a detour (2.5 km) into Windbachtal as far as the Windbachalm, before leaving the valley again and returning to your original starting point.

Safety instructions
Please only ride these paths if you are wearing a helmet as well as appropriate safety gear.

Important - Please watch out for traffic on the Gerlos Alpenstrasse.

You will need to have a light on your bicycle, since you will have to ride through a short unlit tunnel.

The Windbachalm is not managed.

 

Tips
You have the option of taking the National Park Taxi (with bike transportation) as far as the Tauernhaus or to the freight lift at the Warnsdorferhütte (reservations are required!).

If you wish, you can continue from the valley head up to the Warnsdorfer Hütte.

In springtime, Krimmler Achental becomes especially impressive when the crocuses are in full bloom.

The Jaidbachalm has its own cheese dairy.


Directions

If you are coming from Tyrol, use the Gerlos Alpenstrasse. Coming from the east, travel in on the B165 via Mittersill.

Public transportation
When traveling with the Pinzgauer Lokalbahn, a rail replacement service was set up between the stops "Niedernsill" and "Krimml Station".

Reservation is required for taking bicycles.

Parking

Clearly signposted car parks are located right next to the road. Parking fees are charged.
