    Leisurely hike from Buchboden to the Biosphere Park core zone Gadental.

    The hike starts at the hikers’ parking lot in Buchboden. From there, a pleasant, short hike leads you to the picturesque alpine inn Bad Rothenbrunnen. Continue along the signs into the valley, through cool forests, with a pleasant incline. Another short stretch after the forest and you will arrive directly at the Gadenalpe. After a short rest you return on the same path.

    A stop at the Alpengasthof Bad Rothenbrunnen is well worth it!
