Nissl AlmPhoto: Ötztal
The mountain bike route to the Sulztal is one of the highlights of the bike area around Längenfeld.
Increased truck and car traffic on the entire Sulztal path.
Always ride at controlled speeds and with limited visibility, especially around curves, as obstacles can appear at any time.
Driving times:
Trucks: Mon – Fri from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.
Cars: all day
The starting point is at the Längenfeld sports center. From here, cycle towards the main road, turn right and ride the short ascent to Fischbach. There, cross the bridge and turn left again to the main road, which you also cross. Along the Fischbach, cycle to a bridge, cross it and continue through the forest. After a while, you reach a bridge where you can already see the village of Gries, pass through Gries and past the parking lot. Keep cycling on the gravel path until you reach a junction. Here, keep right and ride through the stone pine forest towards Nissl Alm. Through switchbacks, you then reach Nissl Alm. It is worth stopping here to enjoy the delicious food and the unforgettable panorama. Also, a detour to the viewing platform, which offers an incredible view of Gries, is worth it (2 minutes on foot).
