Description

On this hike you follow the Ötztaler Ache initially downstream and later upstream. The starting point can vary according to preference. However, we start in Längenfeld at the campsite. In front of the campsite, a path leads to the right between the tennis court and a small stream to a bridge. After crossing, you stay on this path until you reach the road to Oberried. Now cross this road and walk along the Ache to the hamlet Au. Here the bridge is crossed again and on the other side of the river you return to Längenfeld. Along the entire route you enjoy the peace and a magnificent view of the Ötztal mountains.
