Description

HAIMING -> HAIMINGER ALM

Map & elevation profile

HAIMING -> HAIMINGER ALM

The starting point is the municipal office in the center of Haiming. Follow the path over the Inn bridge to Magerbach and then continue towards Schlierenzau. After 900 m, a forest road branches off to the right. Follow the forest road, which after about 5 minutes becomes a trail. The trail initially leads through moderately steep terrain, becoming steeper as it winds up over the Haiming landslide and after about 1.5 hours of walking time you reach the Lintig hut (unmanaged). After a further 30 minutes you reach the "bend" (1,438 m), which offers a wonderful viewpoint. On the still steep trail, you reach the tree line. From now on, enjoy a path that becomes flatter over magnificent alpine pastures up to the Haiminger Alm.
