This treasure route takes you through the small village of Zwieselstein. Above the main road, you walk past the small church, cross the main road, and walk through the meadows towards the football pitch. Along the Ache river, you return to the village and turn left after the bridge. You reach a place of rest that you won't find if you just pass through Zwieselstein.
Zwieselstein lies in a small basin in the rear Ötztal. Here, where the valley splits into the Venter and Gurgler valleys, the crystal-clear waters of the Venter and Gurgler Ache unite into the majestic Ötztaler Ache. You hike through the small village and enjoy the impressive backdrop of imposing mountains, lush alpine meadows, and clear mountain streams. Along the path, you pass a small, traditional church.
Step by step, the path leads you further over blooming meadows and through the forest; enjoy the sound of the streams and the chirping of birds while the scent of fresh fir greenery invigorates your senses.
How does the treasure hunt work? Along the indicated route, there are small caches (treasure boxes). One or more letters are hidden in each cache. Remember these letters or write them down. Together, these letters form a solution word.
If you have found all the caches on this route and know the solution word, you can collect a small gift (for children) at the information offices in Sölden, Vent, or Obergurgl.
Depending on the snow conditions, the route is also feasible in winter. Magnetic caches, regular containers, PETling tubes, and much more are hidden here. Please make sure everything is well hidden again.
