The Falzthurntal is a valley in the Karwendel west of the Achensee .

The valley stretches for nine kilometers from Pertisau in a south-westerly direction to the Lamsenspitze ( 2508  m above sea level ). South-east of the Lamsenspitze you reach the Stallental via the Lamsenjochhütte ( 1953  m above sea level ) , north of the Lamsenspitze via the western Lamsenjoch ( 1940  m above sea level ) into the Eng . In addition to the Lamsenspitze, important peaks are the Sonnjoch ( 2457  m above sea level ) in the northwest and the Raue Knöll ( 2278  m above sea level ) and the Rappenspitze ( 2223  m above sea level ) in the southeast. There is a transition to the Großer Ahornboden via the Binssattel .

The valley is crossed by the Falzthurnbach, a gravel channel that only carries water in spring.

The valley floor is occupied by cultivated green pastures. While the south-facing slopes are relatively steep and rugged, on the north- facing slopes between rubble cirques there are mountain pines , leg beeches, alpine lawns and mixed montane forests . The valley floor is part of the 8.6 square kilometer conservation area Falzthurntal-Gern Valley, which in turn is a part of the Karwendel mountains forms.

There are two inns in the valley : three kilometers into the valley the Falzthurnalm ( 1089  m above sea level ) and after another three and a half kilometers the Gramaialm ( 1263  m above sea level ). A toll road leads to the Gramaialm. In winter, a seven-kilometer, moderately difficult cross - country trail is prepared up to the Gramaialm .
