Description

Added by Kyle Frost

Arlenweg Loop, easily accessible from St Anton, has views aplenty. If you go counter-clockwise, you can start from anywhere in central St Anton and head towards Nasserein. Follow signs for the Arlenweg. The trail climbs through lush forest for a bit before leveling off to traverse the mountainside. Enjoy beautiful views of St. Anton, the Rendl and the Saumspitze as you pass through meadows and openings in the forest. You'll loop back into St. Anton by way of the Mühltobelweg. The trail can also be done the opposite direction! All-in-all, an extremely pleasant short hike that is accessible from town.

This demanding, but scenic route ascends from St Anton to St Christoph. Begin in town, following the trail under the Galzigbahn to the Sennhütte. From here, the trail is a bit more gradual as it traverses the valley. Eventually, you'll take a sharp right turn and climb sharply up many switchbacks to Lake Maien. From here, you can stroll down to St Christoph for refreshments (and to catch the bu...

Kaltenberghutte to Konstanzerhutte Loop

I did this loop as a wonderful trail run, although it would also be possible to hike it in a long day, or split it up with a stay at Kaltenberghutte or Konstanzerhutte (book ahead). Starting at St Cristoph (a short bus from the center of St Anton), the trail climbs sharply before leveling out and traversing around the mountainside. Another steeper section will bring you to the stunning Kaltenb...

Climb the Stuibenfall Via Ferrata

The Stuibenfall waterfall is the highest waterfall in the Tirol state of Austria, situated in the Ötztal valley. Not only is it an incredible sight to see by itself, but if you have experience climbing via ferrata (known as klettersteig in German), you can climb up the full waterwall. The Approach: Park at the car park for the Ötzi Dorf and Badesee (Bischoffsplatz). Follow the footpath up past ...
