Family hikings

From Maiern to the Aglsbodenalm mountain hut on gravel tracks

Stange/Stanghe, Ratschings/Racines, Sterzing/Vipiteno and environs
An easy hike on gravel tracks from Maiern in the Ridnauntal valley to the Aglsbodenalm mountain hut.
from center

Starting from the Mining Museum, at the end of the Ridnauntal valley, the route initially crosses a large bridge and then follows trail no. 8B. Where the trail branches off to the left, the route continues straight ahead along the gravel track to the hamlet of Gesennen. From here, follow trail no. 8 to the entrance of the Burkhardklamm gorge. The route then crosses another bridge before turning right and ascending along the gravel track (trail no. 9) to the dam on the Aglsböden plateau. Finally, follow trail no. 8 to the Aglsbodenalm mountain hut.

Note: the route follows gravel tracks and short sections of paved road, entirely avoiding forest trails. It is therefore well suited to mountain bikes and pushchairs.

The opening hours of mountain and alpine huts can be found here.
