Hiking
The starting point of the circular hike is the Mizun reservoir, which is located directly on the beautiful Zillertal High Road. From there the path leads you on a slightly uphill forest path to the Mizunalm at 1,860 meters and past it over beautiful, wide alpine pastures in the direction of the Kristallhütte. At 2,147 meters you will be spoiled with culinary delicacies and a fantastic sun terrace.
From the Kristallhütte, follow the "Stoamandlweg" trail to the Wedelhütte. On the way there is a summit victory: It goes steeply up to the Wimbachkopf at 2,442 meters above sea level. Then you descend to the Wedelhütte (2,350 meters), which promises an enjoyable break with traditional delicacies.
From the Wedelhütte, the path leads past a reservoir and again past the Mizunalm to the Mizun reservoir.

Kristall Hut
Highlight • Mountain Hut
In summer it is a popular destination for cyclists. The modern hut with a rustic ambience and a large panoramic terrace is a great mountain destination.
The sundowner evening menu (with advance notice) or the sunrise breakfast (Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun - without registration) are pretty cool.
Summer opening times: Thursday from 9 a.m. to midnight
Friday and Saturday from 8 a.m. to midnight

Pentecost 2022: Hard to imagine, but in the Zillertal 🏔️ you can also hike 🥾 without being overrun by crowds! A wonderful tour with a great view (the weather was nice 😁)... Unfortunately we didn't see marmots, but we heard them clearly 😂.
The 500th hike was supposed to be a special one. And it was. From the Mizun reservoir at 1800m, it was a very steep climb over the Mizun Alm up to the Wimbachkopf at 2442m. I cannot describe the breathtaking view of the mountain panorama in words. So I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.
Apart from all the ski facilities, the ascent of the Wimbachkopf is a well-rounded affair and not too strenuous either. But the descent is tough, whoops!
For the ascent and descent to the Wimbachkopf you should be sure-footed and not afraid of heights. The path is quite narrow and rocky. It is therefore best to wear high hiking boots. Tip: A visit to Murmelland is particularly worthwhile with children. There is lots of play equipment that you can use for free and some animals that you can watch. Note: The journey to the starting point takes you along the Zillertaler Höhenstraße. There is an extra toll here (€10 for cars).
