Starting in Mandarfen, initially cross the bridge to the mountain rescue building and then turn left and follow the agricultural road up to the Taschachalm. Once there continue to run on the right hand side on the path leading up to Rifflsee Lake until a path forks off on the left. Instead of continuing up to Rifflseee, turn left and run via the Fuldaer high-level trail to the catered mountain hut Taschachhaus. Once there, it is a steep descent down across the glacier moraine passing the bottom station of the goods cable lift and on to the agricultural road at the bottom of the Taschach valley back to the Taschachalm. Return via the same route to the starting point in Mandarfen. Caution: This is a very long trail of over 20 kilometres! It can be shortened by descending at the Fuldaer high-level trail back down to the Taschach valley, but please note that the path leading downhill can be easily overlooked.
Kalbenalm - Sechszeiger 6020
Start
Car park Mühlschrofen or Liss/Hochzeiger Bergbahnen (1456m)
Finish
Sechszeiger (1482m)
The starting point of this trail is the car park Mühlschrofen below the hamlet of Gischlewies. The forest path leading towards Leiner Alm branches off after about 1 km onto a wide gravel path towards Kaitanger (Entry also possible from Kaitanger). From here, the route runs parallel to the red MTB route 609 (Tanzalm) and together the trails meander steadily uphill through sparse woodland to the Stalderhütte/Hochzeigerhaus turn-off. The route continues straight on to the Kalbenalm located at the timberline (refreshment stop). From there the trail runs steeply uphill in serpentines for approx. 1.5 km to the reservoir at the mountain station of the Panorama cable car. On the subsequent flatter section, the biker can take a breather before reaching the summit cross of the Sechszeiger at 2,392 m, where a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains makes the effort worthwhile. If you want to reach a second summit, follow the signs to the Hochzeiger 2.5 mountain station - another 1.7 km or 40 minutes. Once there, you can reach the Hochzeiger 2,560 m summit on foot in 15 minutes. You can return via the same route or via the Steinbock Trail (single trail).
