Valley hike "under power", often along the large power lines that connect the Upper Inn Valley with the Ötztal substation.
These power lines may deter some; in fact, there is a lot of space underneath for untouched cultural landscape, which one usually does not expect here, mostly below the main traffic routes of the Pitztal.

Circular tour over the Karröster and Karrer AlmDepending on the perspective, the Tschirgant appears as a broadly spread mountain ridge or as a distinctive horn. It is less the absolute height that makes it a striking landmark in the Tyrolean Oberland, but rather its independent position. All neighbors keep their distance. In this regard, comparisons can certainly be drawn to the Venet. However, a Tschirgant tour seems a notch more robust to me, not only because you have to complete the ascent entirely by your own strength. The conditions also require a bit more mountaineering skill, without presenting any real difficulties. Naturally, one must praise the distant and deep views, which are among the most diverse far and wide, but also the exciting circular route itself with the idylls of two managed alpine pastures.
