Lauterbach: Discover Hiking Routes

If you are looking for a hotel in Lauterbach, the hiking routes can help you connect your travel plans with specific themes. The Brixner Gangl leads from the Lauterbach district towards Feuring and is also known as a circular route around the resort of Brixen im Thale. The Lauterbach local trail is aimed at children aged around four and up; at the municipal level, there is also a difficult mountain biking tour. This gives you the option of first choosing between hiking and cycling before looking for hotels for your stay.

Hiking around Lauterbach

The certified Brixner Gangl hiking trail leads from the Lauterbach district on the valley floor onwards to the hamlet of Feuring. The circular route around the resort of Brixen im Thale is 7.0 kilometres long. Both details relate to the Brixner Gangl, but answer different questions: the place names show the route of the section, while the kilometre figure gives the length of the circular route. The 7.0 kilometres should therefore not be read as the length of the stretch from Lauterbach to Feuring. This distinction is useful if you are choosing a hike based on a specific distance: the figure refers to the entire loop, not to an individual section.

The Lauterbach local trail offers a different point of reference. It is a hike for children aged around four and up. The word “around” makes the age recommendation approximate rather than a strict limit. When planning a trip with children, the local trail therefore offers a different selection guide from the Brixner Gangl: here, the approximate age is the main consideration, while the Gangl is described in terms of its route and length.

Scenery and other routes in the municipality

In the municipality, the Brixner Gangl passes the “Werkstatt Natur” (“Nature Workshop”). There, a section of floodplain landscape is being redesigned in a natural way as part of the bypass and village renewal project. If you pay attention to the landscape and how it is shaped while hiking, this gives you a specific point of interest along the route.

At the municipal level, Route 210: Wiegalm is a difficult mountain biking tour. It follows the Brixenbach stream to the Wiegalm and returns to Brixen im Thale via Kirchberg. The destination and return leg are both part of the route described, while its difficult rating clearly indicates the level of challenge. Compared with the hiking trails, the combination of mountain biking and difficulty rating offers a distinct point of reference. If you enjoy cycling when planning your trip, you can consider this tour as an activity option alongside the hiking trails.

For planning, you can compare the routes using their specific details: the Brixner Gangl includes its route and loop distance, the local trail gives an approximate age guide, and Route 210 is rated as a difficult mountain biking tour.
