Ötztaler Urweg E1 Ötztal Bhf - Oetz

The stage starts at the station square at Ötztal Bahnhof. From there, you walk through Ambergstraße and Wassertalstraße and then turn right over a gravel path under the Inn bridge. Then you cross the Ötztaler Ache and turn left. From the outdoor hotspot AREA 47, you turn right from Ötztaler Achstraße into the hamlet of Brunau.
The path continues to Ambach to the Ötztal Tourism Infopoint. There, you walk left up the hiking trail along the unique Auerklamm, the canyoning paradise of the Alps. High above, you cross a wooden bridge that spans the wild Auerklamm.
Shortly before the small village of Oetzerau, you pass the well-hidden remains of the Auenstein castle ruins. In Oetzerau, you cross the street and follow a field path towards Oetz with a wonderful view. The path descends slightly through some forest sections and past small hamlets.
A special view can be enjoyed from the viewing platform at the “Hexenplatte”. It is located about 5 minutes to the right off the path.
The further descent leads past the parish church above Oetz. The stage ends in the old town center of Oetz.
