Hiking at Eggalm

A comfortable ascent with the cable car takes you to the mountain station. From there, a wide gravel path (No. 33) leads past the "Almspielerei" and further into the valley. The pink glowing alpine rose blossoms are a true spectacle in early summer! Above the Waldhoaralm, the gravel path transitions into a forest path leading downhill. The trail is diverse, and the forest sections provide pleasant shade on hot days. The Brandalm snack station (1,600 m) invites you to stop for refreshments before continuing along path No. 21 + 23, following the forest edge through blooming alpine meadows, back to the bottom station Eggalm Bahnen.

Peak tour

A flagship tour in the Tux Valley! From the mountain station, the gravel path (no. 35) leads uphill through alpine terrain, home to marmots. The ascent is predominantly sunny, so it‘s advisable to pack sunscreen and sufficient fluids. The summit cross is located at an altitude of 2,395 meters, where an impressive mountain panorama unfolds. The descent follows the steeper hiking trail toward the Waldhoaralm and returns to the mountain station via path no. 33.

From Grüblspitz (2,395 m), trail no. 45 leads over the Zilljöchl to Ramsjoch, where an artistic summit cross stands, dedicated to the loyal guests of the Tux Valley.From the Ramsjoch summit, the path descends to the Torseen, passing waterfalls, the route continues to the "Nasse Tux Alm". Via the "Geiselhöfe", the trail leads downhill to Vorderlanersbach or via Gemais (no. 21) to the valley station of the Eggalm
Bahnen.

From the top station of the gondola lift, turn right and head out of the valley on trail no. 33, which leads under the Lattenlift after a large right-hand bend and descends to the Lattenalm. From there, descend through the forest until trail no. 33 joins the goods road. Turn right and return to Tux-Lanersbach via Gemais. Alternatively, it is also possible to descend to Tux-Vorderlanersbach.

On the descent stage from the Lizumer Hütte down to Tux-Lanersbach in the rear Zillertal, you leave the Tuxer Voralpen, which are often green as far as the eye can see, and enter the realm of the glaciated Zillertal Alps. Apart from the almost 1200 m ascent into the valley, which is hard on the knees, there are no surprising challenges awaiting the hiker. From the Lizumer Hütte, you climb, roughly speaking, in an easterly direction to the Torjoch, the highest point of the hike at 2,386 meters. Beyond the pass, the trail descends again on lush green ground. The path soon divides and you follow the “Nasse Tux” or path number 321 to Lanersbach. A little way after the Torsee lake, there is an exposed section that has to be negotiated with the help of a rope, after which the trail leads via the Nasse Tuxalm on paths and tracks, through meadows and forest down to Lanersbach.
