kleine Innsbrucker Nordkettenrunde

Small Nordkette loop above Innsbruck. Opposite the Franz Psenner bridge, ascend via the Heinrich Süß path up to the Alpenzoo. Pass right by the Alpenzoo and climb the Wilhelm-Greil path to Hungerburg. Warning: the Wilhelm-Greil path is actually closed to bikes, but uphill, thanks to sections with 22-25% gradient, you are hardly faster than hikers >>> no problems; downhill definitely not recommended!!! From Hungerburg, take the Rosner path towards Arzler Alm, but at the fork to Rumer Alm, turn towards Rumer Alm. At the next hairpin and fork to Rumer Alm, turn left uphill towards Höttigern Alm (Arzler Alm panoramic loop). At the next fork, where it goes right uphill to Höttinger Alm, continue straight and descend towards Arzler Alm. At the large hairpin, descend right towards Höttinger Bild and return to Innsbruck.
