Discover Mühlthal: Hiking Trails, Kundler Klamm and Chapel

Mühlthal is an appealing starting point for holiday days that bring together experiences in nature, peaceful places and regional features. Hiking trails lead through forests and meadows, past traditional farmhouses and towards Kundler Klamm. There is also the Mühltal Chapel on Schmiedbühel and regional specialities at Thalmühle s'Wirtshaus. Those looking for a holiday apartment in Mühlthal can therefore choose the desired accommodation location based on whether circular walks, an exploration of the gorge, contemplative moments or culinary discoveries are to be the focus of their holiday.

Hiking among forests, meadows and farmhouses

The Mühltal village circular hiking trail starts and ends at the Färberwirt in Mühltal. It leads through the forest, crosses a stream and passes beautiful meadows on its way to Klammstraße. Along the way, the trail reaches the rustic Ebersleith and Ach farmhouses. Small windows, firewood outside the door, flowers and farmers’ gardens shape the appearance of these farmhouses and give the hike a distinctive local character.

The circular trail is particularly interesting when planning a day of hiking because of its varied impressions: Forest sections are followed by open meadows, with the stream and traditional farmsteads also adding to the experience. This allows the route to be combined with your own breaks and personal hiking pace without losing sight of the starting and finishing point.

Further trails for different holiday days

A second option is the Mühltal–Ebersau–Ach Trail. It leads from Mühltal towards Kundler Klamm through the forest to the Ebersau farmhouse and back to Mühltal via the Ach farmhouses. Those looking for a combination of forest, farmhouse and historic farmsteads will find a different route here than on the village circular hiking trail.

The trail from Mühltal via the riverside promenade to Auffach begins at Schinterbrücke and follows the riverside promenade to Auffach. This creates a tour in which not only the circular route in the village but also the route towards Auffach plays a role. Quieter and more inward-looking is the Path of Trust, with seven stations for pausing, reflecting and tuning in to your surroundings. It suits a holiday day when conscious stops, rather than visiting as many destinations as possible, are important.

Kundler Klamm and striking rock faces

The path to Kundler Klamm is also easy to manage with a pushchair. Kundler Klamm is accessible without barriers and suitable for wheelchair users. This information can provide important guidance for families and travel groups with different requirements regarding the design of the route. On the path through Kundler Klamm, visitors pass rock faces up to 200 metres high. The impressive rocky landscape creates a clear contrast to the meadows, forests and farmhouses around Mühltal.

Chapel, tranquillity and regional cuisine

The present-day Mühltal Chapel stands somewhat hidden on Schmiedbühel. For the Mühltal district, it is regarded as a kind of filial church. At the same time, it is a small place of peace and contemplation. The chapel is surrounded by the nature of the Kitzbühel Alps and invites visitors to pause as a spiritual retreat. Those who are looking for quiet and culturally influenced moments in addition to physical activity during their holiday can include this place in their personal travel plans.

The Thalmühle s'Wirtshaus is also part of the local character. Regional specialities such as Wildschönau bread soup, Schlutzkrapfen and Pressknödel are served there. These dishes add a culinary dimension to a day of hiking and make regional cuisine another aspect to consider when planning your stay.

The right base for your stay

When looking for a holiday apartment in Mühlthal, it is worth first deciding on your preferred holiday rhythm. Should the focus be on the village circular hiking trail with its farmhouses, on the path to Kundler Klamm or on a combination of nature, chapel and regional cuisine? The little tourist train can also be included in your plans: It is wheelchair accessible and therefore open to all guests.
