Description

This popular ski tour in Kühtai starts at the Längental reservoir and runs steadily uphill - mostly along a small stream - through the impressive Mittertal valley. Surrounded by striking peaks, the route leads through a tranquil winter landscape, which often attracts visitors with the best powder snow until well into spring, especially in the upper section. The final ascent over steep slopes up to the deeply incised saddle requires fitness and confident ski touring skills. A rewarding tour for all those who appreciate views and a sporting challenge.
