Directions

The hike begins at the upper car park in Obereggen at about 1,550 m.
Follow the signposted Alpine Trail [9], which gently climbs through forest and meadows and reaches the Epircher Laner Alm (1,620 m) in around 40 minutes.

Continue on trail [9] for about 30 more minutes to the Mayrl Alm (1,670 m), beautifully located below the Reiterjoch pass.

Ambitious hikers can continue up to the Reiterjoch (1,996 m), from where you can visit the Ganischger Alm (1,950 m) and Zischg Alm (1,970 m) – both offering sweeping views of the Latemar and surrounding valleys.

The return route follows the same trail back to Obereggen.
