You can make it to the not-so-wild Mannle in the Ötztal Alps in just four hours. Probably one of the best 3,000 meter peaks for a fast number.

Tour character

Short tour to a panoramic 3,000 m peak in the Ötztal Alps. Access by chairlift, then initially easy and later through rocky and partly rope-insured terrain to the summit. For the descent, the variant via the Rofenkarsteig to the Breslauer Hütte, which is also secured, is recommended.
