Bike & Hike Wartherhorn (2.256 m)

Höhenprofil
The hike begins at the village square in Warth and heads toward the Wolfegg district, from where you’ll follow the path uphill to the Alte Salzstraße junction. Following the Alte Salzstraße—a somewhat narrow trail—you’ll reach the valley station of the Jägeralp-Express.
From there, a wide farm road leads you uphill to the Hochalphütte. From the Hochalphütte, the trail continues under the Karhorn Cable Car and the Jägeralp-Express. After passing the Jägeralp-Express, turn right.
At the top station of the Jägeralp-Express, get off your bike and continue on foot. Follow the trail further uphill, and when you reach the Wartherhornsattel, turn left.
After a short climbing section, the trail continues to the summit. Once you reach the summit of the Wartherhorn, you’ve earned a well-deserved break. During this time, you can enjoy the breathtaking panoramic views and the vista over Warth.
The trail then leads back to the Hochalphütte. Once you reach the Hochalphütte, the trail continues uphill. Passing the Panoramasee and over the Saloberkopf, a wide farm road leads you downhill. When you reach the Salobersattel, keep left toward Auenfeld.
At the intersection after the Obere Auenfeld Alpe, keep right and continue through Auenfeld along the trail to Schröcken.
Note: The tour can also be started from Schröcken.
Important note: Bring a bike lock and lock up your bike.
