    Short winter hiking tour to the Kessefall and back to the Palüd cable car.

    From the end of Brand (Palüdbahn car park), this circular route leads into the valley to the left of the Alvier stream. In the Innertal, the trail leads briefly along the Schattenlagantstraße. At the Herz-Jesu chapel you cross the Alvierbach stream. Immediately after the bridge, the Schattenlagantweg branches off. Follow this winter hiking trail to the Kesselfall junction. From here, turn right into the stream gorge to the bridge over the Kesselfall. The way back leads over the Weißtannenmaisäß and on the prepared Schattenlagant road/toboggan run Schattenlagant back to Brand Innertal.

    Please note: Due to high avalanche danger and icy trail sections, this trail may be closed. Information about this is available in the winter report or from Brandnertal Tourismus.
