Ski touring recommendations

This page will give you some ideas for ski tours in the region of Innsbruck. A great way to get a wonderful insight into the wonders of winter, especially under good conditions. These are, of course, only suggestions, as the final responsibility lies with the tourer to inform him or herself about current conditions before setting out.

Ski touring is a sport in which the risks should never be underestimated. We cannot accept any responsibility for snow conditions, avalanche risks and other outside influences. Every ski tourer is responsible for their own adequate avalanche protection and should check all current conditions with Tyrol's Avalanche Warning Service.

This ski tour is only suitable for experienced tourers. Prior knowledge and experience with deep snow and avalanche safety is required. The starting point is Arzkasten car park, where public parking is available. The tour covers a good 900 vertical metres on the way up to Stöttltörl. 


The tour should only be done in safe conditions and must be started early because the steep faces of the Grünstein become increasingly prone to avalanches as temperatures rise throughout the day. When there's enough snow in the valley, it's possible to ride down from Stöttltörl via Stöttlreise to Obermieming.



Arrival, public transport


You reach the starting point via the Inntal valley. At Telfs or Mötz, drive onto the Mieminger Plateau and continue through the village of Obsteig. After approx. 500 m turn right onto a forest road. After a few minutes' drive you will reach the Arzkasten car park, for which a charge is made. Bus 350 or 355 - stop "Obsteig Holzleiten" (approx. 30 minutes' walk to the Arzkasten starting point). www.vvt.at
