Ötschergipfel

Opis

If you have never been up to the Ötscher summit, you have never seen Lower Austria!

If you want to go at a more leisurely pace, you can take the chairlift from Lackenhof, look through the telescope on the Hüttenkogel and reach the 1,893 metre high summit via the broad west peak. Then the Mostviertel will be at your feet.

Počiatočný bod túry

Weitental, valley station of the Ötscher double chairlift

Cieľový bod túry

Ötscherschutzhaus – from here, you can travel back to the lower station in comfort on the chairlift.

Opis trasy Ötschergipfel

Rauher Kamm route: From the car park in Weitental to Ötscherwiese, and on to the Raneck Saddle Pass (approx. 1 hour). At the Bärenlacken Saddle Pass (approx. 1 hour), a narrow path heading south – first flat, then steep – winds its way to the north-east ridge. Continue along the pine-lined route to the entrance of the Rauher Kamm (1533 m). Ascend to the pre-summit of the Ötscher along narrow paths and rugged rock faces. Then comes a pleasant hike over the summit plateau to the Ötscher summit. Go downhill to the Ötscherschutzhaus (approx. 1 hour), and then take the chairlift to Lackenhof, or hike downhill along the marked route via the Riffel Saddle Pass (approx. 1½ hours).
