Hiking village Niederthai

Highlight • Settlement

Niederthai, located on a sunny plateau high above the Ötztal, is a classic hiking village. Here you can start your tours directly from your accommodation! A nice circular hike around the village, a detour into the Tauferberg area or you climb through the Horchlach valley into the high alpine landscape. And if you hike from the village along the Horlachbach, you come to the Stuibenfall, Tyrol's largest waterfall.

Zwieselbacher Sennhütte

Highlight • Mountain Hut

Regional home-made delicacies are waiting for hungry hikers. Wide meadows, relaxed cows and a small pond surround the simple hut. Take a break and enjoy nature!

Schweinfurter Hut

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The hut in the Schweinfurt section of the German Alpine Club is very popular in summer as a starting point for many mountain tours ... and in winter for ski and snowshoe tours.
