At the end of 2012, an educational trail by the name of "Zeitberg" was developed in the three Hörnle peak area. This comprises various stop-off points which provide information on the topics of "Prehistoric times" (origin of the Alps), "Breeding times" (Alpine birds), "Pasturage times" (agriculture in the Alps) and "Generation times" (development of animals in the mountain climate).

All the stop-off points also offer an opportunity to relax. A 3D nature cinema, sun loungers in the form of mudbaths, reading chairs, a games table and even massage beds have been installed up on the mountain. Further information on the Zeitberg is included in a flyer available at the valley and mountain stations of the Hörnlebahn ski lift.

Es ist eine anstrengende Tour, da sehr steil und der Boden wurzelig, beim Abstieg teilweise mit Schotter. Aber sehr schön und an der Hörnlehütte folgt dann die Belohnung mit einem schönen Weizenbier und bayrischen Schmankerln. So wie es sich in den Bergen gehört.

Die Tour ist nicht leicht. 90 % im Wald . Die Wege teilweise sehr steil. Schotter oder Wurzeln. Einfach schlecht. Meine Empfehlung, Das Hörnele mit dem Lift aufsuchen und geneisen. Diese Tour isr unterirdisch. Ein minimales Highlight das Wildtiergatter

Sehr schöne Tour, erweiterbar auf die anderen Hörnle je nach Motivation, einziger Minuspunkt ist der steile Abstieg an der Skipiste. Aktuell, im sonnigen November 2020, auch noch gut begehbar.
