The Tauferberg is a bit like ski mountaineering: First comes the effort, then the pleasure of the descent. Is that even possible on cross-country skis? But hello!
On the first 1.5 kilometers you haveto conquer about 100 altitude meters, which lead through a picture-book forest. Followed by a speedy downhill stretch on the same route with steep sections and hairpin bends.
Travel safe and comfortable with the train to the Ötztal Bahnhof train station. Last stop and exit point is the train station Ötztal Bahnhof. Afterwards you can travel smoothly and quick with the public transport or out local taxi companies through the valley to your desired destination.
