Bike & Hike Ischgl - Bürkelkopf

This tour starts at the valley station of the Silvretta cable car in Ischgl. Drive along the village road to the church "St. Nikolaus" and then turn right until you reach the road into the Fimba valley. Follow the road along the Fimbabach stream to the middle station of the Silvrettabahn cable car. Then keep left and take the path towards Idalp. Here the Alpenhaus mountain restaurant or the Vider Alp mountain restaurant invite you to linger. Continue along the trail in the direction of Flimjoch. When you reach the Velill Trail, change from your bike to hiking boots. Via the Flimjoch you reach the Bürkelkopf (3,030 m) along the ridge and enjoy a fantastic view of Austria and Switzerland in the middle of the ski area.

Info: The Bürkelkopf (3,030 m) is located exactly on the border between Austria and Switzerland and is considered the "northernmost three-thousand-metre peak in Switzerland".

The autoroute (A12 (westbound) or A14 (eastbound)) leads you to the Arlbergschnellstraße (S 16). At the exit for Pians, turn onto the Paznauntalstraße (B 188) and follow its course into the Paznaun.
