Description

A short but rewarding mountain bike route to Stuibenfall - Tyrol's largest waterfall. 

Map & elevation profile

A short but rewarding mountain bike route to Stuibenfall - Tyrol's largest waterfall. 

The starting point of the route is at the Mure parking lot, in the village center of Umhausen. From there, you cycle toward the church and turn left onto Sandgasse at the bridge. You cycle alongside the village creek until you reach an intersection where you choose the middle of the three streets. Follow the street until you reach the fields. Here, take the left road and cycle leisurely along the paved path, which soon turns into a gravel path. Pass by the legendary "Stuibennannele" to the forest cafe Stuböbele. At the bridge, leave your bike and walk the last meters to the base of the waterfall. There, admire the unique natural spectacle.
