    On the high hiking trail, which runs above the village, you have a beautiful view of Brand.

    The entry point is in Brand Innertal. The first part of the route you hike on the Bügmiweg uphill or out of the valley, the second part of the route on the Thurner-Höhenweg. The route ends after a certain time and you have to hike the first short part back on the same path before the path branches off to the left towards the village/main road. Return to the starting point via the main road to Brand Innertal.
