KÜHTAI -> Schwarzmoos lakes -> Pirchkogel -> Feldringer alpine meadows -> Marlstein -> OCHSENGARTEN
The starting point of the route is the village of Kühtai (2,020m). From there, you ascend steeply on a narrow hiking trail on the northern mountainside to the Schwarzmoos lakes. In summer, many horses graze on the alpine pastures in this area. The hiking trail continues steeply up to the summit of Pirchkogel (2,028m).
There are two options for the descent.
1) The same path back - duration of the round about 4.5 hours, dining option in Kühtai
2) Descent on the backside of Pirchkogel. Via the Feldringer alpine meadows, you reach Marlstein and from there descend via the paved road to Ochsengarten - duration of the route about 5.5 to 6 hours, dining options in Marlstein and Ochsengarten
TIP: Park your car in Ochsengarten and take a bus to Kühtai so that you arrive back at your car at the end of the route. Alternatively, take the bus directly from Oetz to Kühtai and then the bus from Ochsengarten back to Oetz.
Travel comfortably and safely by train to Ötztal train station. The final stop or exit point is the ÖTZTAL station. Afterwards, you can easily and quickly reach your destination within the valley using public transport or local taxi services! Current bus schedules are available at: http://fahrplan.vvt.at
