High Altitude Path Prettau/Predoi
Passing by "Knappenegg" and "Bruggerpichl" we reach the "St. Nikolaus-Herrenbaustollen" (adit) Historical Copper Mine. Here there is much to learn about mining and its influence on the developent of the valley. Continuing to "Innerbichlalm" you ascend 300 m through high alpine forests until at the "Pichlwiesn" (meadow) the mountainous panorama of the inner Ahrntal valley reveals itself to you. The unique flora is continuously noticeable until the Stegeralm hut, which gives an opportunity for a break in the midst of the stunning mountain scenery of the Durreck Group and Zillertaler Alps. If the group is still in good shape you can aim to the cross the "Alprechtgraben" gully to reach the cabin with the same name and th Felams look-out. The descent continues on he "Alprechter Almweg" path to the "Alprecht-Stöckl" chapel, and then on the bus stop at the "Stegerbrücke" bridge.
From the public car park in Kasern (1,600 m) take route nr. 11, over the "Rotbrücke" bridge towards the hisorical copper mine, on to "Innerbichlam" and then to the Stegeralm hut. Either descend to the "Stegerbrücke" bridge and then take the bus back to starting point, or continue to the "Alprechtalm" cabin before descending down through "Hasental" valley.
