Breitlehn- und Kapuzinerjöchl (vom Ötztal ins Pitztal) - Längenfeld/Huben

Who chooses the ascent on foot, goes from the small group of houses "Mühl" in Huben on a trail directly to Breitlehnalm. From the pasture, a path leads into the entrance of the grazing high valley and ascends at a steady slope until you reach the bottom filled with boulders and rocks. From the Breitlehnjoch you can look for the first time at the characteristic Kaunergrat (Watzespitze, Verweilspitze ...). An overall picture that always amazes you. The climb to the Kapuzinerjöchl takes all the attention. After crossing a scree slope, small bends through rocky terrain lead very steeply to the yoke. By the Rötenkar first down and on the opposite hand is up to the viewpoint Gahwinden. The Rüsselsheimer hut (about 45 minutes away) can already be seen. During the descent into the Pitztal to the parking lot between the white forest and Plangeross, one is accompanied by the sight of the idiosyncratic rock forms of the Kaunergratberge.

The ascent to Breitlehnalm via a hiking trail which leads through dense forest. From the pasture, it goes through meadows at the beginning. The path is getting steeper and rougher. A rubble slope leads up to Breitlehnjoch. The climb to the Kapuzinerjöchl is cable insured and requires all the attention. Through the Rötenkar you descend to take on the opposite slope again the rise to the lookout point Gahwinden. The Rüsselsheim hut is already visible. The descent into the Pitztal runs on a well walkable path.
