Circular hiking trail: from the village road in the Raitis district, an almost level path branches off to the east and leads across the fields, heading east, south and west before returning to the starting point. Walking time: approx. 1 hour.
This circular hike starts from the car park at the Gemeindehaus (village hall), which is located opposite the listed church in the centre of the village. The route first takes us east along the village road to Mühlgasse road and then continues out of the village towards Angertal (the Anger Valley). Soon, we'll see the former Bergdoktorhaus up on our left, a building made famous by the TV series "Der Bergdoktor", and shortly afterwards the small Lettenkapelle chapel at the side of the road. The route continues from there along a paved road and various signs along the way point us in the direction of the Gerhardhof. After a few minutes, the route takes us right onto a narrow forest trail that leads southeast through a sparse forest towards a fire pit. From there, the route continues straight on towards the roofs of the Gerhardhof off in the distance. At the next fork in the trail, we take the path on the right and follow it for a short distance to the Gerhardhof campsite and guesthouse.
For anyone who does not want to stop off for a break and a bite to eat at the Gerhardhof, you can take the forest road that turns off to the right just before the campsite and then turn left at the first junction. From there, the route takes us along beautiful forest trails back towards Wildermieming. Always keeping left, we continue along the trail to a small gravel pit and a hikers' car park above the main road. From there, a paved road leads past the outlying farms in Unterfeld and back to the starting point - the church tower in the distance also acts as a guide.
Highlight: the display boards in the Anger Valley that provide information about flora and fauna.
This circular hike links the Stöttlalm mountain hut located above Golfpark Mieming with the Moosalm restaurant and guesthouse in Barwies. The hike starts from Lehnbach car park and leads along a forest road that gently climbs up to the Stöttlalm mountain hut. This is a great place to take a short break. Afterwards, follow the same route back down for a short distance and then cross the Lehnbach stream. Continue along the forest road over the new Stöttlalmbrücke bridge towards the Moosalm guesthouse.
After a long stretch through the forest, which also passes a children's playground, you reach the vast open landscapes of the Mooswiesen meadows. Follow the wide path through the characteristic larch meadows with their old barns until you reach the next lovely place for a break: the Moosalm restaurant and guesthouse. The terrace here also offers wonderful views of the nature reserve and the impressive Mieming Range. The route back follows the same path through the forest to Obermieming. After leaving the woods, follow the forest road to the right towards Siedlung and back to the starting point.
From the centre of the village, walk past the parish church towards Obermarendebach. After 5 minutes, turn left to the Falzhöfe farms, where you can enjoy wonderful views to the south as far as the Lisenser Fernerkogel, a 3,289-metre-high mountain known as the "Tyrolean Matterhorn". From there, continue to the sunny hamlet of "Bichl" and then cross the Kühtaier Landesstraße road and the Zirmbach stream. Finally, follow the forest road (route 2) along the Zirmbach stream and back to the village.
From the car park, we hike across the bridge over the Senderbach stream and then follow the forest road for a short distance. A few metres after the first left-hand bend, we turn right to follow the shortcut along a wide, cleared path through the trees, crossing the road once more and continuing up to the private Salfains Alm mountain hut (1,738 m). From the hut, we hike diagonally uphill to a small wooden cross, before continuing west through a small bowl and then out to the right onto the wide plateau that is home to the romantic Schönangerl/Salfainssee biotope and the Salfains hill (2,000 m). If you hike north for about 300 m from there, you will come to a small summit cross located just below the hill with magnificent views of the Inn Valley.
Descent: hike back along the ascent route as described above or take the route via the Kemater Alm mountain hut, where you can stop for a break and a bite to eat.
