Many roads lead to happiness - hiking in Ötztal
Sun. Mountains. Moments of happiness.
High alpine hikes, leisurely valley tours, mountain and alpine trails, educational trails on flora and fauna and on the trail of alpine traditions - there are 1,600 kilometres of hiking trails to choose from in Ötztal. There are 1,600 benches waiting for you to take a break in between. Because perhaps the best thing about hiking is pausing: when, where and how often you like.
Stops can include 99 alpine huts, colourful summer meadows, safe bathing lakes, Austria's highest mountain lake, countless gurgling streams or impressive waterfalls. How about a hiking trip to the Stuibenfall, the largest waterfall in Tyrol?
Wildly romantic, fairytale-like, elemental or within sight of the Eternal Ice - hiking around Sölden offers views of magnificent landscapes, insights into the natural wonders of the Alps and trails signposted with 13,000 signposts, divided into three levels of difficulty.
Those with an even greater thirst for knowledge and adventure can learn about glaciers, geology, ecology or minerals while hiking, explore chapel or legend trails or try barefoot hiking. In short: variety is guaranteed - for a long weekend, a holiday or even several holidays in Sölden in the Ötztal.
