OETZ ZENTRUMSPARKPLATZ -> Beerweg -> Sautens -> Medinger Weg -> OETZ ZENTRUMSPARKPLATZ
The starting point is the central car park in Oetz. From there, you walk down the paved path to the river and along the Ötztaler Ache to the Piburger bridge. There you cross the river and continue on the Piburger country road to the Beerweg junction. The Beerweg leads across snowy fields to Sautens. On the way back, you go over the Sautner footbridge along the river to the central car park.
Of course, the circular hike can also be started in Sautens.
