Directions
From the Hochbrixen mountain station, ride to MTB route 265 at Gasthaus Nieding. Turn right and follow the asphalt road "Oberer Sonnberg" to Buchau. Here the route branches off into the gravel Gsengweg. From Berggasthof Nieding to the start of the "SunTrail" single trail, there are 2.4 kilometers and approx. 200 meters of altitude to overcome.
Easy, flowing trail with difficulty level S1. The upper part of the trail leads through woodland, crossing a hiking trail once and a forest road three times before leading into an alpine pasture area. At the end of the alpine pasture area, the trail initially leads onto a service road that leads out of the Ragginggraben. (Caution! Ride slowly, as oncoming traffic from commercial vehicles must be expected). After approx. 200 meters, the trail begins again and then leads between the stream and a utility or forest road out into the valley, where it ends on the asphalt road. From here, continue downhill on the road past the Grabnerhof and Gruberhof farms to Brixen im Thale.
