Lazidbahn Mountain Station

Highlight • Rest Area

Great panoramic view. Ideal starting point for longer tours, but there are also circular routes for those who can no longer or do not want to do the long distances. Always panoramic views.

The Marmot Trail was quite a challenge for us lowlanders. It was narrow and almost entirely rocky, with good hiking boots and poles a must. Highlights included two large scree fields, the view from the Kitzköpfle, and Lake Fuglersee. It took us considerably longer than the stated three hours. But it was worth it!

Made my day! What a great tour!
We start on the trail of the smugglers, so we walk part of the path that young men from Serfaus took to get cigarettes, chocolate, coffee, etc. from Switzerland and sell them in Innsbruck. Then we turn onto the marmot trail. It takes 3 hours to walk the almost 7 km, which says …

... it wouldn't have needed the short detour after 1.1km - it went :-()
Otherwise a nice path, but unfortunately it was way too full for us; at least halfway through. Since we left early, the beginning was still pretty empty until the Furglersee ...

For €30 per person, we took the gondola up to 2030 meters to the start of the hike. The first part leads over the Schmugglersteig with an incredibly beautiful panorama. Sturdy shoes are a must. Even if the route profile seems easy, you should have a good basic level of fitness. From the Furglersee at 2400 meters, it is a …

After we had a rainy day in Servaus yesterday, the weather gods are very kind to us today. Today's tour was a dream of mine. In 2024, the tour fell through. It was wet today, too, but only along the trail. There were a few falls in the mud.

From Serfaus, take the beautiful panoramic trail through the kingdom of the marmots.

Even though there are no major inclines to overcome, the path still requires some surefootedness and skill.

The Komperdell and Lazid cable cars take you up the most altitude. From the mountain station we walked uphill to the Schneid before we got on the Marmot Trail. The trail leads along the ridge and climbs to the Furglersee. After the beautifully situated Furglersee, which invites you to take a break, we continue along the ridge leisurely downhill to …

Varied high-altitude trail between the mountain stations of the Komperdell and Lazid cable cars. Sure-footedness is required.
