Bike & Hike: Amoser Hochalm & Hahnbalzköpfl

This guided Bike & Hike tour combines athletic challenge with impressive views and a true summit feeling.

Starting from Dorfgastein, we begin our ride on the bike, initially cycling uphill through shady forest paths amidst idyllic mountain landscapes. Along the way, we pass the Amoseralm at about 1,200 meters above sea level – a place that later invites us for a cozy break.

However, the actual goal lies even higher: the forest road continues to ascend steadily, becoming increasingly demanding until we finally reach the first stage of our tour above the tree line. Here, we switch from bike to foot and continue along a scenic hiking trail. Our destination is the Hahnbalzköpfl at 1,862 meters, whose ridge rewards us with a magnificent panorama. The view extends far over the Gastein Valley to the Salzach Valley. The steep slope leading up to the distinctive Bernkogel (2,325 m) – one of the most prominent peaks above Dorfgastein – is particularly impressive.

After an extensive summit break, we head back down into the valley. Those who wish can conclude the tour with a visit to the Amoseralm to enjoy regional specialties. Whether sweet Pofesen or a hearty Brettljause – true culinary delight awaits here, and the tour ends on a cozy note.
