The round through the Windau valley from the north to the Filzenscharte and south into the Salzach valley is a MTB highlight. However with sliding distance, approx. 20 min. There are two ways on the "Schreier Bründl". The upper signposted hiking trail, which is quite dry and you have to overcome smaller boulders, as well as the lower "beaten path", which is flatter, but very swampy.
The landscape is outstanding to the south through the creek high moor landscape down towards the Salzach Valley. The easiest way back to Hollersbach is to take the Panoramabahn, take your bikes with you to the middle station and roll back over Pass Thurn.

... the name suggests - the Filzenscharte crosses a high moor area with numerous small streams, puddles and moss areas - the upper signposted hiking trail is quite dry, stepped and rocky, the lower "footpath" has no gradients, but is very humid and boggy - at the entry on the north side, the Schreier Bründl offers a water tap ...

Super gravel section with minimal effort to push over the saddle.

The Filzenscharte is an Alpine crossing in the Kitzbüheler Alpen in the north of the Oberpinzgau to North Tyrol.
From Wald im Pinzgau, the Trattenbach valley and along the Filzbach you get to the 1,686 m above sea level. A. located transition. In summer, pasture cattle from Tyrolean valleys are driven over him to pasture.

The Gamskogel (2,206 m above sea level) lies southeast of the transition.

The Filzenscharte has been significantly improved. You can now take the lower trail with your mountain bike (push your bike). Planks have been laid along the entire length through the moor, allowing you to push your bike easily without any incline. The fence you previously had to lift your bike over has also been removed and replaced with two removable electric wires. It's super convenient now. Please always reattach the electric fence!
The walk through the moor only takes a few minutes.
You can safely forget the upper trail.
