Großer Ahornboden

Highlight • Natural Monument

The gold color of the countless sycamore trees in the narrow valley, framed by the spectacular rock faces of the Karwendel Mountains, fascinates every autumn.

The idyllic Almdorf Eng is located at an altitude of 1,250 meters. Surrounded by the impressive mountains of the Karwendel, you can just linger a moment or stay longer. Up here there are guest rooms, refreshment stops, a farm shop and a cheese dairy. Everything here revolves around life in and with the mountains and despite all the tourist “attractions” this small village has retained its originality.

Großer Ahornboden

Highlight • Natural Monument

It is best to visit the Großer Ahornboden in autumn, when the maple trees change color. A wonderful natural spectacle! The visit is for the whole family. There are enough parking spaces, play opportunities for children and endless restaurants. You can also spend the night there and take day trips to the surrounding peaks. There is something for everyone.

Tip: The Alpengasthof also has a wellness area and a camp for hikers; 34 euros a night with breakfast and use of the sauna. 😊 That might be good, so in between on a multi-day tour!

Entrance to the Eng-Alm

Highlight • Trail

There are many sycamore trees in the Eng. They were planted to provide shade for the cattle. There are many varied hiking trails with places to stop for refreshments. Fresh buttermilk and delicious mountain cheese are the specialties of the region!
