Smoothly over rich alp meadows

The Buchegg-Trail is the extension of the Hacklberg- or Bergstadl-Trail. It starts right at the mid station of the Westgipfelbahn lift or rather beside the Bergstadl. This flowing and relatively easy trail snakes its way through idyllic landscape shaped by meadows, and offers plenty of fun and variety on the way, with lots of small tables, turns, and rollers.

Author’s recommendation

The Buchegg-Trail is designed for downhillers, freeriders, soul riders as well as tourers.
