Imagine you are hiking along the high alpine Ötztal Trek. For entire days you will see nothing but 3,000 meter peaks, alpine pasturelands, mountain lakes and ibexes (well, there may also be a few two-legged mountain fans). Sometimes you will be gasping for breath, but more often you are in a rush of happiness. It's amazing how much adventure you can fit into a short break! What’s best: thanks to perfect organization, you can simply enjoy this guided hut hike

After your individual journey to Umhausen, you check into your booked accommodation. At the subsequent welcome evening at the traditional inn, you will get to know your group and the hiking guide. Together we will discuss the program for the next few days.

We enjoy a hearty hut breakfast one last time. Then we descend along Köfler Waalweg towards Hintere Fundusalm.
