VENT -> SAYKOGEL
A fabulous hiking trail travels from Vent via the suspension bridge to Rofen, then further on towards the goods lift of Vernagthütte. The breathtaking Rofen ravine takes you on a moderately ascending trail - later it becomes very steep - to Hochjoch Hospiz. From the hut you continue downhill to the iron bridge across Hintereisbach. A switch-backing path leads to the fork off towards Martin Busch Hütte. A slightly ascending and later very steep trail travels across rock-strewn areas (two short climbing sections without safety ropes - surefootedness and a good head for heights are an absolute must!). Descending via Martin Busch Hütte is possible.
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
