Start your tour at Freizeit Arena and follow the federal road. Before you reach the BP gas station you turn right into the rising road towards the hamlets of Innerwald/Außerwald/See. Cross the hamlet of Innerwald and proceed to the Glacier Road that takes you to the ski run's underpass where you turn left. Follow the asphalt road which joins a gravel trail. This gravel route (always keep to the left) travels to the recycling plant and past the helicopter landing base. You reach the federal road again, it takes you uphill straight to Hotel Neue Post in Zwieselstein. At the height of Hotel Neue Post, on the opposite shore of Ötztaler Ache mountain brook, you follow the asphalt road towards the entrance to Kühtrainschlucht Trail (664) - it is a highly demanding route with black trail blazers, rideable in both directions. Here you have to conquer challenging rails, narrow corridors, steps and tree roots in abundance. The trail ends in the hamlet of Moos where you take the asphalt road via the houses of Windau back to Freizeit.

Author’s recommendation

As soon as you reach the fabulous Kühtrainschlucht ravine you should take enough time to marvel at this peaceful Alpine gorge of awesome natural beauty.
