Halfway there is a hiking track towards the Stallwiesalm - keep to the left! 

     

    The track is part of the Route Enduro Windach B.

     

    Please yield to hikers!

    Author’s recommendation

    The Kleble Alm is not far from the start (or end) of the trail. Great food, great view!

    Safety information

    The Lochle Alm Trail is a red track with a few switchbacks and technical parts.

     

    The BIKE REPUBLIC SÖLDEN is all about coming together and having the best time on your mountain bike – no matter what your skill level is. So always take care of each other, show respect and support – also towards nature and all other people out there in the mountains and the valley.

     

    > Please only ride existing, signposted trails and never trespass open meadows.

    -> Avoid skidding, don’t cut switchbacks & leave no trace.

    -> Stay alert, never scare animals and always close the pasture gates. In the REPUBLIC there’s always a chance of cattle on the trails and lines. Ride carefully and give them enough room.

    -> Please note that the natural trails in the BIKE REPUBLIC are all shared trails. Always yield to hikers and give a friendly greeting.

    Turn-by-turn directions

    The trail from Kleble Alm towards Windachtal valley is nice and flowing but has some short and tiring ascents, plus one very steep downhill section at the end. Halfway up there is a walking trail fork-off towards Stallwiesalm - here you keep to the left! One of the big advantages of this trail: the forest soil is suitable for biking tours also in rainy weather.
