Wild nature and glaciers in view - that sums up the third stage. This day's stage is challenging, but the many breathtaking views of sparkling glaciers quickly make us forget all our exertions. At the end of the stage, the Winnebach-seehütte, we can cool our hot feet in the cold lake water. Kneipp therapy in Tyrolean.
Difficult stage on black mountain paths. Sure-footedness and alpine experience for partly high alpine terrain are required. You have to pass scree fields and pathless structures. Very good physical condition is a prerequisite.
Enjoy a both comfortable and relaxing train ride to the train station in Ötztal Bahnhof. You get off the train in ÖTZTAL Bahnhof where you change to a public bus or local taxi. The current bus schedule can be found at: http://fahrplan.vvt.at
