High alpine experience is also required for the fifth and final stage on Route 1 of the Ötztal Trek. If you bring this with you or book a mountain guide, you will experience the Ötztal in all its beauty and wildness - including magnificent views. We spend the night at the Hochstubaihütte, at an altitude of 3,174 meters. A Tyrolean interpretation of the upper class.
Difficult, challenging stage on black mountain paths. Sure-footedness and high alpine experience for walking on glaciers as well as the correct roping technique are required. Orientation for pathless terrain required. A very good level of fitness is required.
Ice axe, crampons, rope | Mountain guide recommended.
Travel safe and comfortable with the train to the Ötztal Bahnhof train station. Last stop and exit point is the train station Ötztal Bahnhof. Afterwards you can travel smoothly and quick with the public transport or our local taxi companies through the valley to your desired destination.
