History
Hinterwaldberg lies on the old mule track (Saumpfad) from Mittersill as a trading hub on the route over the Gerlos Pass (Pinzgauer Höhe) to Zell am Ziller. It was upgraded into a cart track in 1631.[1] In 1962 the new Gerlos Alpine Road (Gerlos Alpenstraße) via Krimml (today part of the B 165 Mittersill – Hainzenberg) was opened, that had been planned by graduate engineer Franz Wallack, the builder of the Großglockner High Alpine Road (Großglockner Hochalpenstraße). Consequently the Old Gerlos Road (Alte Gerlosstraße, today the L 133) lost its importance.[1]
Tourism and places of interest
The Arno Trail (Arnoweg) runs through the village, having crossed the Salzach near Orgler after coming from Schloßberg. It then continues as a climbing path to the Pinzgauer Spaziergang above Lahn.[2]
