Keep your eyes and ears open. Here you are practically guaranteed to see a marmot! Binoculars are always a good idea... 🔭

April 6, 2026,Wanderung Richtung Hintertuxer Gletscher ☀️☀️☀️👍👍👍
A beautiful hike towards the Hintertuxer Gletscher in radiant sunshine and a pleasant 15 degrees. Despite the snow, everything felt almost like spring – the sun made the landscape sparkle, and the clear mountain air made every step special. Once at the top, a breathtaking panorama awaited – simply a perfect day in the mountains.

The weather was perfect, so we headed up to the Sonnenbergalm at 2100m. But we didn't make it to the Tux Glacier because of the bad weather; there were just too many clouds. No problem, we enjoyed the panoramic trail on the way back too; it was a great tour. 😎🥾😀👍

The 1/3 is quite steep and lonely!
Surefootedness required!
Only conditionally suitable for dogs! Otherwise great track!
If you are afraid of cows or have a dog with you, you should not start from the Bichlalm around 4 p.m. as the cows will be herded up.
Better take the road then.

Then we took the glacier bus back to the Sommerbergalm and …

Beautiful hike past the waterfalls, ending at the Bichlalm, always a must. A very cozy Alm with great food and the super loving Klausner family. It doesn't get any better. 🇦🇹😎😁

Beautiful circular walk from the parking lot at the valley station of the Sommerbergbahn 🚠
The climb to the Sommerberg via Waldeben is mainly over large boulders, so watch out where you put your feet, but super beautiful! 😍
Once at the top you can continue to enjoy the view of the Hintertux Glacier and the Murmeltiere ❤️
