Start at the Kreuzkapelle in Sautens, after about 100 m following the road, the red trail turns right into the forest. Beautiful hiking path to the viewpoint Tschirgantblick. Especially recommended in spring and autumn.
Please stay on the marked trail (red triangle). In the summer months, it is advisable to bring plenty of drinking water
Hiking boots, snack, and drink
Over 3000 years ago, massive parts of the Tschirgant fell into the valley and blocked the entrance of the Ötztal. Today, the area is a small, originally preserved natural oasis in the otherwise densely populated Tyrolean Inn Valley. The mostly forested area offers quiet spots to relax, rich biodiversity, and is surrounded by legends and myths. Circular hiking trails lead through the mystical landscape of the Sautner Forchet past fascinating cultural points (lime kiln, dwelling cave, ...) and some information boards about the animal kingdom and geology.
How do you find your treasure? Along the marked route, there are small caches (treasure boxes). In each cache, you find secret letters. Enter all letters on your treasure map. Only those who have collected all letters can form the solution word. With this solution word, you can pick up a gift at the information office Oetz or at the Ötztal infopoint!
START POINT: Parking lot at the Kreuzkapelle (football field). IMPORTANT: Follow the path marked with the red triangle.
