Forest Trail Between Mellau and Au

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The app always suggests the route via Schnepfau. It's nicer here and you can completely do without roads between Mellau and Au

The vertical, 100 meter towering layer walls made of hard limestone are of great scientific importance. They accompany the "Ludwigsweg" through the Argenschlucht almost to the waterfall. So far, the family can hike with children and prams.

Damülser Mittagsspitze

Highlight • Summit

Large, wide slopes with difficulty levels blue and red invite you to carve. A varied descent via slope no.1 to Damüls is recommended.

Damüls is characterized by alpine skiing. But you have a nice panoramic view when you are at the top of the mountain station.

Great and quite demanding tour from Au around Damüls. Right at the beginning, a killer climb through the forest on forest roads with good grip. The cow trough was very welcome, I would have liked to have completely fooled myself 😄.
Damüls itself is visibly designed for ski tourism, including a few big hotels (but these are at least covered …

It's really steep right from the start. No rolling in 😄.
The Argen Gorge is truly amazing. Very beautiful. From Damüls to the Ugaalpe, it's steep again, and paved. The further down, it's steep and loose gravel.
Down through the Argen Forest in switchbacks. Beautiful.
And then down the Faschina road at 60 km/h. Wow.

Mega tour. Dream landscape, technical uphills and great downhill trails. Good to ride apart from the one uphill where it felt like my front wheel had no contact with the ground and a short pushing section.

Today we took advantage of the nice weather again and did @Alexander's Mellau Damüls tour. The uphill was pretty tough, especially the last 2km along the summit cable car to the Wannenkopf, with a gradient of up to -24% it's a real challenge. You have to push the last 500m, which really takes the fun out of it for a …

I completely forgot how beautiful the tour is. From the Mellau valley station through Mellental to Rossstelle, then up to Uga. A really steep climb, always a cool ride. Through the ski tunnel over to Damüls. A short push section. I wanted to climb the Hoher Blanken, but it was too tough for me from that side. So, from there, …
