A good starting point for various hiking tours that aren't too crowded. Be sure to check the timetable for the ascents and descents. There's also a lunch break between 12:15 and 1 p.m.

There's a wonderful diversity of plants around the Heimjöchl. It's especially beautiful there in early summer, when everything is in bloom and colorful.

These elevators don't run continuously. Normally, they run every half hour.

Very nice mountain hotel located below the Gerlosstein. Very easy to reach by Gerlossteinbahn or on foot from Hainzenberg. Unfortunately the road is closed to bicycles. Very good regional cuisine. The cordon bleu with grey cheese is a dream.

The loop with Heimjoch on the descent is nicer to run.

Below the Gerlosstein and the Freikopf there are lush alpine meadows that are full of flowers in spring and summer. Their biodiversity is enormous and the mountain panorama all around is truly unique.

The 2,166 meter high Gerlosstein is a striking mountain in the Zillertal Alps. From up here you can enjoy impressive 360° views of the Tux and Zillertal Alps. It is a popular destination for hikers and climbers. The ascent is more suitable for experienced hikers and you should definitely make sure you are sure-footed when it rains.
