The Ochsentodsteig is so named because oxen that were used as pack animals in the past sometimes fell fatally on the steep terrain.

Only possible with an alpine stroller. Very bumpy and steep path. Still very recommendable for hiking!

It's downhill over bumpy curbs - the name says it all, and not just for ox-footed people

Wonderfully laid out Waalweg towards Merano coming from Algund

An old Roman cart path. In its stones one can still recognize the deeply ingrained wagon traces from many centuries.

The Ox Death Trail is rightly named. It's not that long a piece, but not without in the sun!

A visit to the head at the hall is worthwhile. The traditional restaurant would be modernized and looks great.

Up the historic steep Ochsentodweg - on which many an ox has lost its life.
The heavy ox carts from the Middle Ages left deep groove marks in the ancient cobblestones, which are still visible today.

Great views - but bumpy terrain (curbstone) which was certainly partly fatal to the animals at the time

The short, arduous ascent via the Ochsentodweg is well worth it. Very nice new Buschenschank called Unterötzbauer with a great view.
