The Tour
SÖLDEN GAISLACHKOGLBAHN --> Moosalm (not managed) ---> Brunnenberg --> Moosalm --> SÖLDEN GAISLACHKOGLBAHN (Brunnenbergalm closed in winter)
Brunnenberg is located on the quiet side of Sölden and offers a peaceful, idyllic hike.
As a starting point, we recommend the parking lot at the Gaislachkoglbahn. From there, walk towards the campsite and cross the bridge.
Then turn right and follow the path up to Moosalm. Enjoy the breathtaking panoramic view over Sölden here.
The path gently ascends further along a forest road, leading through dense forest to the Brunnenbergalm.
From Brunnenberg, a wonderful view opens up of the opposite ski mountain Gaislachkogl and the valley of Sölden.
Since the Brunnenbergalm is not managed in winter, we recommend bringing tea and a small snack to better enjoy the tranquility and the view.

Directions
Start your hike to Brunnenberg directly at the Gaislachkoglbahn.
From here, walk towards Wohlfahrt and cross the bridge that leads you to the Windau district.
The path now takes you up a fairly steep asphalt road to the Platte district and further to Wildmoos.
In the Wildmoos district, you will reach a junction where you keep left to reach Moosalm.
Shortly after Moosalm, the asphalt road changes into a wide forest road, which can be covered with snow in winter.
The path gently ascends past the climbing garden.
After a short flat section, some steeper turns await you, leading you up to Brunnenberg.
The descent follows the same path as the ascent.
