The Hochoetz alpine region satisfies all of these yearnings. You can walk till you drop through scenery that is so beautiful that you even forget your aching muscles when evening comes. You can cycle up and down and across and back until the wheel hubs groan with tiredness. You can clamber and climb up mountains till you reach the sky. The walking country extends from the Acherberg and the Mittertal Gap (Scharte) to the wildly romantic Wörgetal, the Mittertal and Längental to the Dortmun Hut and beyond. For short hikes and contemplative family hikes there are magnificent panoramic walks in the midst of the Hochoetz alpine region starting right from the upper station of the Acherkogel railway – some of which are over well made-up, push-chair friendly forest trails. In a short time, you will reach the Acherberg Alp, the Bielefeld Hut, and the Kühtaile and Balbach Alps. You can walk down to Ochsengarten and then take the walkers‘ bus back to the lower station of the cable car. You can make an exhilarating tour of the mountain huts or contemplate your way along the meditation trail. Impressive peaks and unrivalled views from mountain tops await mountaineers and climbers. There are three thousand metre peaks like the Acherkogel and the Sulzkogel and rare panoramas to enjoy such as that at the Wetterkreuz. But whether you want to climb to the heights or prefer a more leisurely, family-oriented experience, you will return to the valley with joy and unforgettable impressions in your heart!
