Nice alpine trail down from the peak of Wankspitze to the Lehnberghaus hut. Some pretty technical parts over rocks and gravel as well as some difficult switchbacks, then the last part through woods. The trail is fairly popular with hikers, especially when the Lehnberghaus is open, so recommend not riding during the very high season on weekends.

Access Info

From Arzkasten on the forest road as far as possible, then push and carry the rest of the way to the peak.

This trail is unsanctioned.

Disclaimer

Only for trail-running or hiking. Mountainbiking forbidden due to austrian law. Be friendly to hikers. Run at your own risk.
