Circular hiking trails, a named winter trail and the Auracher Altar offer different starting points for a trip to Obermieming. The Mieminger Plateau Circular Hiking Trail passes through Obermieming; the winter trail to Gerhardhof starts at the Lehnbach car park in the village. There is also St. George’s Church with the Auracher Altar. When planning your stay, you can choose between outdoor activities, scenery and a historical detail.

Hiking Trails with Different Points of Interest

The route through Obermieming is part of what makes the Mieminger Plateau Circular Hiking Trail distinctive, as is its surrounding landscape: the route follows easy-to-walk forest tracks and paths through meadows and woods. When planning, you can therefore take into account both the stated trail surface and the scenery. The trail combines a circular hike with specific impressions of meadow and woodland areas.

The winter trail to Gerhardhof offers a different focus. It starts at the Lehnbach car park in Obermieming. This makes it easy to identify by two clear details: the named trail to Gerhardhof and its starting point at the car park. In comparison with the Mieminger Plateau Circular Hiking Trail, different features take centre stage: the latter passes through the village and has its own trail conditions, while the former is designated as a winter trail and starts in Obermieming.

The hike to Stöttlalm follows its own route: a circular trail around Golfpark Mieminger Plateau. Taken together, the three trails differ in what you can base your choice on: the route through Obermieming, the starting point at Lehnbach, or the circular trail around the golf park, with Stöttlalm as its destination. This distinction makes the trails easier to compare without combining them into a single excursion.

Golf Park Mieminger Plateau and Its Views

Golf Park Mieminger Plateau has 27 holes and is situated at an altitude of 885 metres at the foot of the Mieminger chain. Its elevation and mountain setting give the location a distinct landscape. There are also two clearly defined directions to look in: from the golf park, the view stretches east across the Inn Valley; to the west, the panorama extends as far as the Ötztal and Lechtal Alps.

This east–west contrast makes the views especially vivid: the Inn Valley lies on one side, while on the other the named Alps stretch to the horizon. If you would like to include scenic experiences as well as hiking trails in your travel plans, you can consider this viewpoint and its specific directions. The details about altitude, location and views describe Golf Park Mieminger Plateau.

The Auracher Altar in St. George’s Church

The Auracher Altar is located in St. George’s Church in Obermieming. It was created around 1710 and restored in the late 1990s. The two dates refer to different stages in its history: around 1710 marks its creation, while the restoration took place several centuries later. This gives the work a historical context as well as a later point of reference.

The altar adds a distinct cultural theme to the trails and scenery. If you would like to give hiking and history different weight, you can include the church as a separate focus in your travel plans. Together, the trails described, the views from the golf park and the history of the Auracher Altar offer different ways to explore Obermieming according to your interests.
