Starting from the center car park in Oetz, ride along the river and then turn left into the forest towards Piburgersee. Continue on the forest road until you reach the junction `Piburger See` . The short but steep ascent demands a lot from bikers, but the view from the Seejöchl rewards all the effort. From there follow the forest path to Haderlehn and further via the winter sledding run to Sautens. From there you ride back the Ötztal cycle path back to Oetz.
Author’s recommendation
The tour runs along developed trails and is easily ridable by e-bike or mountain bike.
