In the Zillertal Alps at an altitude of 2,246 meters lies the Pfitscher Joch, an Alpine crossing that connects the rear Zillertal valley with the South Tyrolean Pfitscher valley. The border between Austria and Italy runs directly on the Joch. On the Italian side is the Pfitscher-Joch-Haus, a summer refuge with overnight accommodation and special offer for bikers.

If it's not foggy, there is definitely a great view of the valley. From Schlegeis Speicher it was a bumpy ride here, sometimes with sliding routes.

Coming from Italy easy driveway on forest road, down to Schlegeisspeicher Plattenweg S2 but in dry conditions to drive on some places well
