The Bachlehrweg in Reitlehen offers a clearly defined starting point for a waterside hike: it begins at the Seestube car park at the entrance to the Hollersbach Valley near Reitlehen 68 and follows the Hollersbach stream to the Wirtsalm. Both the starting point and destination are clearly specified. The route is subject to the usual seasonal trail conditions; check them before setting out.
Bachlehrweg and stone walls
On the Bachlehrweg to the Senninger Alm, another specific feature takes centre stage: the trail runs alongside historic stone walls. By contrast, the description of the route to the Wirtsalm highlights its course along the Hollersbach stream. The destination details help distinguish the trail descriptions: the stream is the focus on the way to the Wirtsalm, while the stone walls are the focus on the way to the Senninger Alm.
Larmkogel Route: access and orientation
The “Larmkogel 3017m from Hollersbach” route can also be identified by its access: it is reached by heading south from the Reitlehen district through the Hollersbach Valley to the Seestube inn. The direction and named point of access are important for orientation. Road and parking conditions can change; check them before setting out. This route description is intended to help with finding the access point; it differs from the Bachlehrweg information, which specifies the starting point and the route along the stream.
The name Seestube appears in two different contexts: for the Bachlehrweg, the Seestube car park is the starting point; for access to the Larmkogel Route, the Seestube inn is named. When planning, check which role is meant in each route description.
The Hollersbach Valley as a natural environment
The Hollersbach Valley offers clear mountain streams, waterfalls, mountain lakes, working alpine pastures and mountain huts. This variety describes the wider valley area and complements the specific trail features of the routes. When planning, it is helpful to distinguish between two levels: a route description names destinations and trail features, while the valley offers a broader landscape. Consider whether you would first like to follow a particular trail or take in the natural environment of the Hollersbach Valley as a whole. The stream and stone walls are specific features of the trails, while streams, waterfalls, mountain lakes, alpine pastures and mountain huts characterise the wider valley area.
A winter experience with a dated programme
The Hollersbach Valley winter experience can also be placed within a specific timeframe. During the programme period from 31 December 2025 to 1 April 2026, the meeting point was listed as the car park at Reitlehen 41. The winter experience was described as an excursion in a winter landscape, with snow-covered mountain meadows, forests coated in hoarfrost, and sparkling, icy streams. Snow and ice therefore shape the winter description, while the Bachlehrweg routes are characterised by the stream or stone walls. If you are visiting in a later winter season, please check the dates and meeting point in effect at that time.
