This easy hike is worthwhile because of the great blooms, especially in early summer.

From the top station of the Dorfbahn, follow the goods path to the Inner Parpfienzalpe. This is the starting point of the Parpfienz circular trail. Shortly after the alp, branch off from the trail in the direction of Niggenkopf and hike up the valley on the south side of the Lorenzitälis. After a short stretch on this trail, cross the stream and then follow the road, which leads you back to the Inner Parpfienzalpe.

Author’s recommendation

As an alternative to the goods path from the Dorfbahn mountain station to the Inner Parpfienzalpe, the varied "barefoot path" is recommended.
