Turn-by-turn directions

The Lienbachloipe ( cross-country skiing trail) starts at car park P1. At the beginning it runs past the plate and practice lift, a little way along the Postalmstraße (street). Now the trail leads into the forest, past a large clearing to an alpine hut. On the sunny alpine pasture, a large loop leads to the highest point of the trail. From here, it runs through an idyllic piece of forest back to the starting point.
