Ötztal Local Heritage Museum

Highlight • Historical Site

This small but nice museum was opened in 1979 in Längenbach. Conveniently, the museum is right on the Ötztal cycle path. So you can take a break here and take a little trip into the past.

Ferdinand bike bridge Umhausen

Highlight • Bridge

The cycle path was newly constructed in 2018. If you are coming from the north, you first cycle over the newly built Maurach bicycle bridge, followed by an underpass and finally over the impressive 65-meter-long Ferdinands-Bogenbrücke.

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

This well-paved bike path winds its way up and you will have to pedal a little. The reward is a nice flat section along the Habicher Seebach.

Took the bike bus from Ötztal train station to Sölden to cycle the Ötztal cycle path. It had everything a cyclist could want. Short, sharp climbs, rapid descents, great scenery and good signage for the great route. A lot of money was spent on this (bike bridges, road underpasses, etc.)

To try: From Sölden down the Ötztal is also good for older people like me to ride without an e-bike. (Postbus with bike transport from Ötztal train station to Sölden cost €10.70) Great panorama!

August 14, 2023,Fahrradtour von Sölden nach Sautens mit kleiner Wanderung in Längenfeld

Ötztal Cycle Path from Sölden to Sautens. Parked the bike in Längenfeld on the way (no problem at the tourist info, even with a charging station if needed) and made a nice, short hike over the Brandalm and the suspension bridge.
