Höhenweg Reith

Höhenweg Trail

Start the Höhenweg Trail in the Kitzbühel holiday village of Reith, beginning at the church. After a few meters, join the trail with a gentle incline leading into the forest. Be sure to look back occasionally during the ascent for beautiful views of Reith and the Kitzbühel basin. At Scharwandalm, follow the trail left and adhere to the "Höhenweg" signs. The trail merges into a forest road, which you follow downhill towards the valley, guided by the "Hennleiten" signs.

The downhill section is technically easy, mostly on gravel with some trail segments. In the lower part, forest paths alternate with roads until you reach "Hennleiten," where you turn back towards "Reith" and run through the valley bottom to return to the starting point. The trail can be run in either direction, but downhill enthusiasts might prefer running it clockwise.
