Winter Hiking Path to Walchental

Beautiful winter hike on a plowed road into Walchental valley.

From the historic center of Öblarn you hike into the idyllic and quiet Walchental. Along the Walchen river there are always beautiful views of the stream landscape and in some places impressive ice formations hang from the rocks on both sides of the valley. At the Gasthaus zum Bergkreuz you really deserve a stop.
