Cross-country skiing trail Tauferberg Trail, Ötztal

closed
Difficulty ratings: difficult
Route length: 2.3 km
Duration: 0:45 h

The Tauferberg is a bit like ski mountaineering: First comes the effort, then the pleasure of the descent. Is that even possible on cross-country skis? But hello!

We recommend because:

  • Short, difficult trail in Niederthai in the Ötztal, where snow is guaranteed
  • Steep ascent to a mountain ridge with a challenging, winding descent afterwards
  • Refreshment stops in the village
