More of a gravel road than a trail, but the scenery is beautiful.

The scenery is beautiful, but it's more of a gravel road than a trail. It's still worth it, though 👍🏻

Since this section mostly runs directly along the Saalach River, there's no chance of getting bored. It's very interesting and varied.
