The tour starts in Krimml and then takes you right up the first pass road. From the Gerlos Pass you continue over the Tyrolean border to Gerlos. Over the winding Hainzenberg you get to Zell am Ziller. Through the Zillertal you go to Strass and along the Inn River towards Rattenberg. In Wörgl you are already heading in the direction of Kitzbühel - Jochberg and then you come over the Pass Thurn back into the Salzburgerland to Mittersill. Along the Salzach valley you come back to the starting point - to Krimml.
