Herb hike to the Moditzerhütte

The herb hike to the Moditzerhütte is an easy hike suitable for baby carriages along the alpine access road to the Knallalm with good views of the Großsölktal valley.

Interested visitors can gain exciting and informative insights into the flora of the Sölktäler at numerous stations along the way.

The trail starts at the Moditzerhütte parking lot on the eastern side of the valley. First you walk along the farm access road to the Moditzer farmstead, where you walk through the middle of the farm to the alpine access road. You now hike steadily uphill along the alpine access road through the forest until you reach the Knallalm. Here, the Moditzerhütte invites you to take a leisurely break. Return to the starting point via the same route.

The opening hours of the Moditzeralmhütte can be found here.

Tip: The Trogermühle, the only intact mill in the Sölktäler, can be easily reached in approx. 10 minutes from the Moditzerhütte parking lot. In the summer months, you can watch the mill work and see how the grain is ground into flour.
