Appropriate equipment such as breathable and weather-appropriate outdoor clothing,

hikes and routes. Bringing a first aid kit, a mobile phone, and possibly a hiking map, as well as carrying enough provisions for hikes without refreshment options, is necessary.
The hike starts in Huben, a hamlet of Längenfeld, at Mühle. Initially, you follow the forest road towards Polltal- and Breitlehnalm. Hikers can soon switch to the Ötztal High Alpine Pasture Trail. Noticeable is the fern-rich larch-pine forest. After two-thirds of the route, the path branches off towards Hahlkogelhaus. This signpost is ignored, and you continue straight to Polltalalm. After a short rest and refreshment, the path goes behind the hut across alpine rose beds, heather, and bilberry heaths to Breitlehnalm. The path between both huts invites you to pause, enjoy nature, and the magnificent view. Upon arrival at Breitlehnalm, a hiking trail leads back to Huben.
Travel comfortably and safely by train. The final stop or drop-off point is ÖTZTAL station. Afterwards, you can conveniently and quickly travel to your desired destination throughout the valley using public bus services or local taxi companies.
