HUBEN -> Breitlehnalm -> Breitlehnjoch -> Kapuzinerjoch -> Gahwinden -> Rüsselsheimer Hütte -> PARKPLATZ WEISSWALD
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.
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 our local
taxi companies through the valley to your desired destination. Please find the current bus timetable here:
