Using the Venet cable car, the circular route starts at Krahberg already at about 2200m. Exceptionally scenic, it follows the ridge over several summits. On the way back, along a high-altitude path through alpine pasture land, there are opportunities to stop for refreshments.

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.

When the days get shorter, and there is still no snow in November and December, and cold and fog prevail in the valley, the sunny slopes above Wenns in the Pitztal are ideal for sun hiking.

A typical alpine clearing in the Pillerwald region On the north side of the Aifners lies the charming Kielebergalm with a beautiful view of the front Pitztal valley stretching out to the Inn valley. Opposite, the massive Venet rises. The main attraction of this hike is surely the lovely ambiance all around, while the route itself does not offer much excitement. It mainly follows forest roads through dense woodland and is therefore also suitable for mountain bikers.

On the sunny side of the Venet Another alpine pasture hike in the Venet area, this time on the extensive southeast flank above the Piller meadows. The surroundings are exceptionally charming, presenting delightful flora in early summer and a golden sea of larches in autumn. The views stretch across to the mighty Kaunergrat as well as to the Upper Gericht, the uppermost section of the Tyrolean Inntal.
