Good physical fitness, mountain experience and mountain equipment (see under equipment) necessary
Please observe the current weather report at: www.oetztal.com/de/sommer.html
Wearing hiking equipment such as breathable and weather-appropriate outdoor clothing, ankle-high mountain boots, wind, rain and sun protection is recommended! It is also important to bring sufficient provisions as well as a first aid kit, a mobile phone and possibly a hiking map.
Starting from the district Mühle in Huben, the track leads to the Polltal and Breitlehnalm. Hikers can soon switch to the footpath, which has a steeper ascent but shortens the many switchbacks. Striking is the fern-rich larch and stone pine forest that one passes through almost all the way to the top. Upon reaching the hut, you enjoy a magnificent view of the valley and the Ötztal mountain world. Refreshed and strengthened, you return to the valley. For this, you either choose the track or first hike further to the Breitlehnalm and from there take the mountain path (a bit steeper) back to Huben.
Travel comfortably and safely by train. The final stop or exit point is the ÖTZTAL train station. Afterwards, you can travel conveniently and quickly by public bus or local taxi companies through the entire valley to your desired destination.
