Zirbenweg XL: The Legendary Alpine Trail

The Zirbenweg is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful mountain trails in the Alps, and we’ve made it even better for trail runners by extending it to the XL version, so you can enjoy its stunning landscapes for even longer. This panoramic trail, winding through ancient Swiss stone pines (Zirben), offers breathtaking views of the Karwendel peaks and the Inntal valley. Some of the oldest Swiss pines here are over 250 years old, with one reaching over 700 years. From May onwards, the path is adorned with a vibrant sea of alpine roses. The XL version includes an additional ascent to the majestic Neunerspitze and Viggarspitze, making it the perfect trail for those who want to fully immerse themselves in this alpine paradise.
