Die Alpenüberquerung (Stage 6)

The stage begins in Mayrhofen and as indicated, can be

reached either easily by bus to the Schlegeisspeicher reservoir or, for the

more athletic, via hiking trails. From the Schlegeiss dam, the route continues

into the valley to a small bridge that crosses the Zamserbach stream. After the

bridge, the trail continues to the right into the Zamsgrund valley, continuing

to the Italian border. Once there, you can take one last look at North Tyrol

before the landscape opens up to the South Tyrolean mountains. From there, the

trail leads downhill toward Pfitsch.
