Trail description
Ride the Venet Gondola to its mid-mountain terminal and strap on your snowshoes . The route follows a forest road, climbing moderately through a winter wonderland of dark green pine, spruce and larch, likely covered in a heavy layer of snow. Jagerhütte Cabin in Fließ is reached after about 2.5 hours of travel.
While you rest here, enjoy views into Upper Inntal Valley, as well as the surrounding mountain scenery. Once you’ve had your fill of views, return the way you came to get to the mid-terminal and ride the gondola back down to the valley.
