    Especially on hot days, this bike route is a pleasure, as the biker is constantly riding through shady forest and the Venter Ache provides cool breezes. An attractive and varied loop, which on the return from Bodenegg can also be understood as an easy singletrail.

    Roadbook

    The starting point of this beautiful circular route is in Sölden at the Freizeit Arena. From there, you go straight past the municipal office and cross the bridge to get to Dorfstraße. Here you turn left and follow the main road. The pleasant ride through the village goes past sports shops and countless places to stop for refreshments. After about 1 km, at the junction in front of the BP gas station, turn right (marked H). The road here leads slightly uphill above Sölden to the hamlet of Außerwald. At the next fork, first follow Lärchenstraße further uphill, then continue towards Seestraße. At the next junction, choose the left path and continue on Außerwaldstraße. Soon you reach the first houses of the small hamlet of Außerwald. After passing the Alpengasthof Grüner, at the next fork turn left and continue straight until you reach the next houses in Innerwald. At the first houses, turn right and follow Innerwaldstraße, which leads through the hamlet. Always follow the paved road, which soon leads slightly downhill. You soon reach the junction of Gletscherstraße. At hairpin turn No. 1 on Gletscherstraße, turn right onto the uphill street. Before the overpass over the ski slope, turn left and head towards Infang. At the next fork, stay left and continue to follow the path. After about 2 km, you reach the industrial area of Sölden. From here, after a few meters, you return to the Ötztal federal road. Opposite the recycling yard, turn right onto the federal road and follow it slightly downhill to Zwieselstein. In Zwieselstein, first cross the Ötztal road, then the Gurgler Ache, before just in front of the Brückenwirt guesthouse in Zwieselstein turning right onto a forest road. Follow this road parallel to the Venter Ache, which flows out of the valley to the right. You ride past wide fields and meadows and shortly reach the Zwieselstein sports field. The path continues through a short forest section before you cross the Venter Ache on the right and then reach the regional road to Vent (lightly trafficked). Here you keep left and follow the road further into the valley. After about 1.5 km, the Bodenegg road leads off to the left from the Venter regional road shortly before Bodenegg (marked P2). Follow this a few meters downhill and then turn sharp left to cross the Venter Ache and start the return route on the right side of the stream. The path leads through some shaded forest areas while the Venter Ache provides refreshment. You continuously follow this route parallel to the Venter Ache downstream. After about 2 km, you come to the first hairpin turn toward Gurgl on the federal road above Zwieselstein. Going down to Zwieselstein is only a few meters. From Zwieselstein, take the Ötztal federal road back to Sölden, the starting point.
