Scharnitz –  (re)discover nature

Movement and strength...
The gateway to the Alpenpark Karwendel Nature Reserve opens in Scharnitz, the village on the Bavarian-Tyrolean border, well-known far as wide as a “base camp” for mountaineers, kayakers and rock climbers. Here there are countless opportunities to explore nature and discover yourself. Barren Alpine pastures alternate with primeval valleys and craggy peaks. Sheer, vertical rock faces rise up out of, and in sharp contrast to gently undulating meadows blooming with Alpine flowers. And whether active and on the move, or just enjoying a tranquil moment all alone, you find yourself in the midst of this awe-inspiring grandeur. The River Isar has its source here, as do 5 stages of the “Eagle Walk”, a long-distance hiking trail which crosses some of the Tyrol’s most scenic areas. An experience to revitalise all your senses!
