Tallner Alm Kaser

Highlight • Mountain Hut

This Alm is a little away from the Hirzer Bahn and therefore less frequented. The quality of the food and drinks is impeccable, the fry soup is a must ... :-).

July 17, 2024,Almenweg beim Hirzer

Beautiful alpine pasture tour on the Hirzer with a short excursion to the Nogg on Rotmoos, which swallowed a shepherd and his flock in a crack in the earth.

Take the Hirzerbahn from Salthaus up to Klammeben. This is where the hike along the Almenweg starts and ends. Before the steeper ascent halfway up, you can treat yourself to a break on the Mahdalm or Hirscheggalm, e.g. in a deck chair and with a delicious elderberry juice.

The hike ends at the Hirzer mountain station. I just forgot to finish the tour. Of course you can also hike further into the valley and only get on the cable car at the middle station.
