6 Birkhahn Trail

Medium difficulty trail for more experienced bikers

For a more challenging alternative to the Alpkogel Trail, the Birkhahn Trail is the perfect option. It begins at Switchback 13 of the Faulbrunn Trail, near the Ballunspitzbahn valley station at 1,930 metres above sea level. Riders can access the trail via the Faulbrunn Trail or a service road from the Alpkogelbahn mountain station.

With around 20 switchbacks, fast descents, and a more technical course, the Birkhahn Trail offers the right mix of flow and difficulty. Below the Kopserstraße, it merges into the Alpkogel Trail, making it easy to combine both routes.
