You can reach Lake Berglstein in 30 minutes on foot via a wide forest track; the path is also suitable for pushchairs. Breitenbach am Inn also offers an easy Waldtal circuit, a section of the Way of St. James through the Inn Valley, and the KulTour – Chapels. Chapels and a Baroque parish church complement the hiking options. This means trails with different time requirements are available alongside specific historical and architectural themes.
Hikes with different time requirements
Lake Berglstein is also a destination or waypoint for easy hikes. If you are heading there specifically, the stated walking time provides a concrete planning reference. Another option is the Waldtal circuit in Breitenbach: this easy circular hike is 6.26 kilometres long, leads through the forest and past beautiful farmsteads, and has a stated duration of 1 hour 40 minutes. If you prefer a loop to a single destination, you can take both distance and duration into account when planning your hike.
The hike to Plessenberg also offers a clear point of reference when choosing a route: it provides views in every direction. You can therefore choose a hike based on what you are looking for—for example, a circular route, Lake Berglstein as a destination, or the views from the Plessenberg hike.
The time estimates correspond to different types of route: 30 minutes on foot to the lake, 1 hour 40 minutes for the Waldtal circuit, and 7 hours for the section of the Way of St. James. They help you compare how much time each outing takes.
Chapels and churches in Breitenbach
The Antonius Chapel in the hamlet of StraĂźmĂĽhl is dedicated to St. Anthony. It was first mentioned in the 17th century; around 1675, miller Peter Kurz had it built. Its first mention and its approximate construction date are two distinct historical reference points.
The Antner Chapel is a Lourdes chapel built in 1910, with a shingle-covered gabled roof. A gabled roof consists of two sloping roof surfaces that meet at the ridge. The shingles and roof shape are specific architectural features. The parish church of St. Peter in Breitenbach am Inn is a Baroque parish church. The chapels and church thus offer a different focus from the trail distances: here, the emphasis is on dedication, date of construction and architectural style.
The Way of St. James and KulTour – Chapels
The Way of St. James from Breitenbach is a 25.32-kilometre section of the route through the Inn Valley. Its stated duration is 7 hours. Two routes on the Way of St. James meet in Glatzham: one from the direction of Kufstein and one from the direction of Wörgl. The tourism office may update route distances and duration estimates; check the route details before setting off.
You can do the KulTour – Chapels in Breitenbach on foot or by bicycle. A narrow, steep connecting path is not suitable for cycling, so the cycling route goes around it. If you are planning the tour by bike, take this detour into account.
There is a bus stop for route 4113 near the Antonius Chapel. If you are planning to take the bus, check the route timetable in advance.
