Stuiben Trailrun Umhausen-NiederthaiPhoto: Ötztal
Trailrunning route along the Stuibenfall waterfall. The route is especially well suited for beginners due to its varied trails.
The start takes place in the center of Umhausen at an altitude of 1,036m. After one kilometer on asphalt and along the Wasserwaalweg, runners reach the foot of the Stuibenfall waterfall, where 728 spectacular natural and steel steps as well as a dreamlike backdrop await. Arriving in Niederthai, there's some time to recover before it gets serious for the first time. Over the Rauhen Bichl it goes towards Höfle and Bichl. The following downhill leads via the Höhenweg to the trail to Sattele. The last section of the route runs along the Steppsteig towards Stuibenfall to the Stuiben Nannele, where the witch gives full wind for the last 1500m into the village center.
