The hiking region in Kaunergrat Nature Park comprises the towns of Landeck, Zams, Fliess, Tobadill, Grins and Stanz. It lies ensconced between the Lechtal and Ötztal Alps. Countless hikes at all altitudes guarantee revitalization, recuperation from everyday life and breathtaking views.

Overall in the Fliess region there are 130 highly diverse hikes to be ventured upon. Point of departure for most of them is the Kaunergrat Nature Park House at Gachenblick.

From Gachenblick, a wide system of hiking trails opens up in all directions. The Gachenblick Roundabout is an easy hike with walking time of under 2 hours. The Piller teaching trail circumlocutes the fen, it’s also a roundabout hike, combining the fascinations of a high altitude moor with cultural background of the people.
