Difficulty ratings: easy
Route length: 2.1 km
Duration: 0:45 h

In Hochgurgl you can also - you guessed it - go up on cross-country skis. But above the tree line you are rewarded with guaranteed snow and more hours of sunshine, and in this case also with the panorama of the great Ötztal mountains.

We recommend because:

  • easy, short high-altitude trail above the tree line
  • suitable for beginners and slightly advanced skiers
  • wide view over the valley and the Ötztal mountains
