Description: Day 2: Holzalm - Pinzgerhof -> ca. 3 h. - if you include the hike to Gratlspitze calculate an approx. 2 h 30 min.

After breakfast, take off on the second stage of the 3-day family tour. On this leg the hike has few long ascents, crosses meadows and forests to the Alpengasthof Pinzgerhof in Reith im Alpbachtal. Above the Holzalm mountain inn, hike towards the Hauser Saddle and further downhill to the Innerhauserhalm. Continue along an alpine meadow path to the Silberbergalm. From there, due to a diversion, take the trail to the right onto the R24 (the R24 on the left is currently closed). Before Hohenbrunn, follow the R23 trail to the Pinzgerhof. Great accommodation with a magnificent view over the Inn Valley awaits you.
