Nestled in the gentle grassy slopes of the Kitzbühel Alps, above Fieberbrunn, lies a true gem: the Rohreralm. Anyone looking to combine nature, panoramic views, and a cozy stop for refreshments will find the perfect destination here – whether on foot or by e-bike. And with the so-called Goasleitn trail, the tour even gains a touch of adventure.
The journey is the destination – via the Goasleitn
The start in Fieberbrunn alone whets your appetite for more: lush meadows, dense forests, and the impressive mountain panorama accompany you from the very first step. From the Obwall parking lot, a leisurely path leads uphill – but soon you can choose: continue the classic route along the forest road or take the Goasleitn trail.
The classic tour is pleasantly short – about an hour's walking time – and therefore ideal for gourmets, families or a spontaneous half-day trip.
As you hike, you immerse yourself deeper and deeper in the tranquil mountain world: birdsong instead of city noise, fragrant forest air instead of hustle and bustle. It is precisely this simplicity that makes this tour so appealing.
The Goasleitn (roughly translated as "Goat Path" in the local dialect) is a narrow, natural trail that leads through the forest in a somewhat steeper and more pristine manner. Here, the hike becomes more exciting: roots, small rock steps, and narrow passages provide variety without being truly difficult. However, sure-footedness and good footwear are definitely recommended.
It is precisely this section that makes the tour particularly appealing – a little wild, a little playful and significantly quieter than the wider forest road.
By e-bike: Sporty ride to the starting point or on the forest road to the alpine pasture
If you're planning this tour as an e-bike excursion, it's best to ride to the starting point of the Goasleitn trail or a little beyond on the forest road. It's best to leave the actual trail itself on foot – it's simply too narrow and technical.
The "bike & hike" concept works perfectly here: first, leisurely gain altitude, then consciously experience the final stretch. Once you reach the top, the break feels doubly well-deserved.
Or you can take the forest road directly to the alpine pasture with your e-bike. Concentration is required on the descent, as there are steeper sections with larger stones, but this is no problem for experienced riders.
Arrive and enjoy yourself at Rohreralm
After the varied ascent, the terrain opens up, and you soon reach the Rohreralm at around 1,250 meters . The rustic hut welcomes you with genuine Tyrolean hospitality, regional delicacies, and a breathtaking view over the valley.
The sun terrace is perfect for a longer break – whether with a hearty snack or a sweet Kaiserschmarrn . If you like, you can even pre-order an alpine breakfast and start the day in a completely relaxed way.
And while you're sitting there, it quickly becomes clear: It's precisely for moments like these that you embark on this journey.
And then there's another charming detail: the small windmill in front of the alpine hut, which has been turning in the wind for decades and gives the hut its unique character. Another highlight is the goats that roam around the hut – curious, playful, and often right in the middle of things. They're simply part of the place and always create special moments, especially for families.
The terrace itself is even more rustic: it's quite possible that chickens will stroll right under your table while you're enjoying your snack. This relaxed, almost rural atmosphere makes the stay so authentic and special.
Optional: Continue towards Wallerberg
Those who still have energy after the break can continue their ascent from the alpine pasture towards Wallerberg . This section is considerably more challenging and more suitable for experienced hikers.
Everyone else simply stays seated, enjoys the peace and quiet – and perhaps another coffee.
Conclusion
The hike to the Rohreralm is a perfect example of how diverse a seemingly simple excursion can be. The Goasleitn adds an exciting, nature-filled variation to the route, making all the difference.
Whether leisurely or a little adventurous, on foot or combined with an e-bike: This tour combines everything that makes for a successful day in the mountains – exercise, nature, a touch of adventure and lots of enjoyment.
