Bench Above the Former Nairzhütte

Highlight • Viewpoint

Approximately 100 meters above the Achselbodenalm there is another meadow area. People often camp here during the solstice fire.

In autumn a huge herd of chamois can be seen.

Great view of Innsbruck

Brandjochkreuz

Highlight • Summit

The Brandjochkreuz is the high seat above Innsbruck. A not too difficult, barefoot-friendly tour leads here. This is also the starting point for the popular south ridge, which is only recommended for those with climbing experience.

Aspachhütte

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Not catered for, but still a beautiful place to take a break. The small grassy plateau invites you to linger and relax. There is no water. Next watering hole: Achsboden Hütte via Durrachsteig.
