We start at the modern Ötztal relief in the showroom of the ÖTZTAL NATURE PARK. We visit the “Teufelsschmiede” (devil’s smithy) and get an insight into an old craft. The hike leads us along a former trade route and past the remains of the Auenstein castle ruins. Today the gorge is a hotspot for adrenaline junkies who put their courage to the test while canyoning. The dreamlike view over the start of the Ötztal up to the Inntal valley is the reward on this day. We get to the Hexenplatte viewing platform and return to Oetz, where the day is concluded with a guided tour of the old village centre. Right in the middle of it all!
