Hike to Hubertus Chapel –

from Jägerheim via the Spruce Forest Trail.This short, atmospheric hike begins at Jägerheim in Kaunertal and initially follows the valley trail out of the valley. Shortly after Hotel Tia Apart, a narrow path branches off – and this is where the real nature experience begins.The path leads you about 1.1 km through a fairytale spruce forest, slightly uphill and downhill, past moss-covered boulders and through quiet, shady sections.The atmosphere is quiet and enchanted – ideal for a short break from everyday life.

At the end of the path, you will reach the Hubertus Chapel, idyllically situated and a beautiful place to rest or quietly reflect. From there, you can either return the same way or continue along the valley hiking trail.

Tip: It is especially beautiful in the early morning when the sun's rays shine through the trees and the forest is bathed in golden light.
