E-bike hut route to Kleblealm (651)
Description
Map & elevation profile
The Tour
Just below the Kleble Alm lies the Stallwies Alm, which can also be reached via the Kleble Alm Trail (699) or the Kleble Alm mountain bike route (651). Whether going up or already back down the valley, the Stallwies Alm is the perfect place for a stop.
After a visit to one of the alpine huts, freeriders are in for a real treat: the footpath down to Sölden (699) offers one of the best singletrails in the region. Steep and demanding, this route requires a good level of riding skill. Not only do some root-strewn sections challenge both rider and equipment. Those who prefer to ride down more comfortably can simply take the approach route back.

Directions
The moderately difficult e-bike route starts at the Leisure Arena in Sölden. At the first intersection, turn into Granbichlstraße and follow it. After a few meters, you reach the old people's home. Granbichlstraße leads uphill directly into the homonymous hamlet, Granbichl. Always following Granbichlstraße, you soon leave behind the last houses of the hamlet. The asphalt road continues for a few more meters and then changes to gravel. Passing a barrier, follow the wide gravel path steadily uphill. At the next fork, keep left and follow the signage for the mountain bike tour towards Kleblealm. The further you ascend, the better the view of the surrounding mountains of Sölden. On the opposite side towers the middle and upper station of the Gaislachkoglbahn on the eponymous peak. From the Stallwiesalm/Kleblealm junction, it is only a few hundred meters to the tour destination, Kleblealm. The alpine pasture is located in a beautiful, scenic spot and is also the starting point for some summit tours, including the local mountain of Sölden, the Söldenkogl. Slightly below Kleblealm lies Stallwiesalm, which also invites you to linger. It is accessible via the narrow Kleble Alm Trail (699) or the Kleblealm mountain bike route (651). After the well-deserved rest in one of the alpine huts, the return route to Sölden follows the approach path back. For freeriders, a real treat awaits. The footpath to Sölden (699) offers one of the best singletrails in the region. Steep and challenging, this variant requires a good level of riding skill.
