Schlender Line 6060
Enjoy the new Schlender Line, the long-awaited connection between the Gampe Alms and the Hühnersteig. A super fun flow line that now connects the two idyllic alpine huts. You can now easily get from the "Hühnersteige Alm" directly to the Gampe Alms. The red line runs without major difficulties, first through open terrain and later winds through the forest. Halfway through, riders have the option to leave the line early to reach the "Stabele Alm" and finally the "Ohn Line." This section includes jump variants. Those who ride all the way to the Gampe Alms can take a well-deserved break on the rustic huts with large sun terraces. Attention: The section from the junction to Gampe Alm can be ridden in both directions. So watch out for oncoming traffic.
