Welcome to Route 5 of the Ötztal Trek with its three challenging mountaineering stages. From the Braunschweiger Hütte we set off directly into the high alpine. Today we "dust off" three three-thousand-meter peaks on the Mainzer Höhenweg: Wurmsitzkogel (3,079 m), Grschrappkogel (3,197 m) and Wassertalkogel (3,252 m). After 10 hours of walking, we look forward to the cozy Rüsselsheimer Hütte.
Difficult, demanding and long stage on black mountain paths. Sure-footedness and high alpine experience for demanding, partly pathless terrain is required. Glacier and climbing experience and a very good level of fitness are required.
Enjoy a both comfortable and relaxing train ride to the train station in Ötztal Bahnhof. You get off the train in ÖTZTAL Bahnhof where you change to a public bus or local taxi. The current bus schedule can be found at: http://fahrplan.vvt.at
