Past the reservoir lake and the WIDIVERSUM, the route leads to the viewpoint "Rotes Wandl." From there, a beautiful view opens up over the front Ötztal and the Inn valley. The winter hiking trail is groomed and runs away from the ski slopes. The last ascent back to the reservoir lake is somewhat steeper. Only suitable for experienced winter hikers with good footwear. Tip: We recommend hiking/ski poles.
