From the Devil's Bridge to the mountaineering village

On the trail of the Tux Valley's mining history

From the Teufelsbrücke, a legendary wooden footbridge over the deeply incised Tuxbachklamm gorge, we hike past the Dornauhof farm and turn onto a secluded hiking trail. It leads us mostly through light-flooded forests towards Ginzling. Shortly before Karlsteg, we descend to the Zemmbach stream and reach Gasthof Karlsteg via the tunnel portal. From there, we follow a narrow path into the valley, admiring the colorful flowers below us and the high peaks of the Zillertal main ridge above us. After the Gamsgrube, we take a leisurely walk over the Schrahnbach stream to the Lengauhof, where we have reached the northern part of the mountaineering village. A suspension bridge over the Zemmbach stream takes us to the nature park house in just a few minutes.
