Valley hiking trail with e-handbike

Start
Mandarfen (1679m)
Finish
Wiese (1177m)
Hike with E-Handbike: The valley hiking trail from Mandarfen to Wiese (ca. 22 km) can be navigated either by electric handbike or sections of it by Swiss-Trac. If you are using an electric handbike, we would advise to start in Mandarfen and take the route out of the valley. The route is overall challenging as it repeatedly features steep inclines and varied terrain. There are several sections through grazing pastures. We would recommend the following sections for Swiss-Trac users:  
  • Mandarfen and Neurur (ca. 6 km)
  • Stillebach and Eggenstall (ca. 4 km)
  • Enger and Wiese (ca. 5 km)
You can choose start and end points in any of the villages and hamlets of St Leonhard within these three sections.

Piller Moor nature trail – wheelchair-accessible route

Start
Car park at the entrance to Piller Moor (1526m)
Finish
Car park at the entrance to Piller Moor (1526m)
It is approximately 500 metres on a gravel path to the turf house square [Torfhüttenplatz] where the path forks off. Turn left to get to Piller Moor natural landmark and the moor observation tower or turn right to walk past the winter feeding station and a path that leads to the peat cutting area. After approximately 200 metres you will reach a platform, which reveals a view of the “Putzenmoos” that is well worth seeing. Here, peat was still cut until the early 1970s. The wheel-chair accessible path then continues for approximately 300 metres until you reach the moor. From there, the road is no longer suitable for wheelchair users.  

Piller circular route

Start
car park Piller Zentrum (1346m)
Finish
car park Piller Zentrum (1346m)
Swiss-Trac Tour:
Start at the car park opposite the fire station in Piller. From there, follow the tarmac road in the direction of Galflunalm. It is a straight road in the direction of a forested area for the next 0.5 km. The gravel path is a little loose and with a rougher surface here. Before reaching the woodland, turn off into a grassed path with some larger stones, which make for a bumpy ride. Leave this path after 300 metres and turn right on the path that takes you back to the village. Several larger water bars cross this path. After a few metres keep to the right and follow the path downhill, where, once again, several water bars cross the path. After half a kilometre, you will pass the sports grounds and return to your starting point within 300 m.
