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.

Through the rockslide terrain at the mouth of the Ötztal valleyThe focus of this valley hike in the front area of the Ötztal is the Sautener Forchet, where extensive stands of krummholz pines colonize the rockslide area that formed 3000 years ago from the Tschirgant. Numerous winding and partly poorly signposted paths run through the confusing hilly terrain. A strong contrast to this natural landscape is the Area 47, the trendy leisure and adventure park that sets modern trends in tourism.

From Roppen to a great view "The journey is the destination" – this well-known saying often holds true in the mountains, but here it is probably different. Less the relatively monotonous forest ascent, but rather the cozy alpine inn and an unusual viewpoint above, although without a summit, are the attractions when we set out from Roppen to the Maisalm. It is located on a large clearing on the outer northern slope of the Geigenkamm. Those who manage the bonus up to the ledge at Mutkopf – after all 1300 meters above the Inn Valley – can relax there on anatomically shaped giant benches with a great panorama.
