- Description
-
Starting from Mühle in Huben, the track leads to the Polltal and Breitlehnalm. Hikers can soon change to the footpath, although a larger slope but the many turns abbreviates. Striking is the fern-rich larch and stone pine forest which you can almost reach the top. Arrived at the hut, you can enjoy a magnificent view of the valley and the Ötztal mountains. Relaxed and strengthened, we return to the valley. For this you either choose the track or walk first to the Breitlehnalm and from there take the mountain trail (a bit steeper) back to Huben.
