On the Inntal Cycle Path near Pfaffenhofen, the path crosses the bridge towards Telfs. Just on the northern bank of the Inn river, the 25 km long Mieming Cycle Route (Mieminger Radweg) branches off towards west. The gravel path runs first along the river, then it ascends through the forest to the higher districts of Telfs. At Lumma, the path continues further towards north, and above the "Südtiroler Siedlung" hamlet it follows the Püligtal valley up to Wildermieming (300 m in altitude). After that ascent, there's an almost flat section to Obermieming and Barwies.
There the second ascent starts, mild at the beginning, then a little steeper. Passing Obsteig on the edge of the forest under the peaks of the Mieminger Chain, the route climbs up a bit more than 200 m to the Arzkasten mountain inn, the highest point of the cycle route at 1,160 m a.s.l. Here the descent starts - either via the main route to Aschland, or you take the variant via Holzleiten through the Rossbachtal valley to Dormitz and Nassereith. The village on the Fern Pass Route at 830 m a.s.l. is the end of the Mieming Cycle Route R4, which joins here the Via Claudia Augusta Cycle Route which leads either to the Fern Pass or through the Gurgltal valley to Imst.
