Climbing, e-bikes & co.

The beauty of the end of the Ötztal is not only ideal for exploring on foot. It also offers adventures on a bike or with climbing shoes.

Mountain bike & E-bikes

Many excursion destinations and huts are within reach with a mountain bike. In and around Obergurgl everyone finds the appropriate tour – from family friendly to challenging. With an e-bike you are even faster over the mountains, and have more time to enjoy the wonderful views. Mountain and e-bikes are available for hire in the nearby sports shops.

Via ferrata & climbing

The via ferrata in the Zirbenwald, close to the village, is an absolute adrenaline kick for the whole family. Right at the start a deep gorge has to be crossed, it then carries on along the mountainside. As a non-climber you can observe the spectacle from the opposite side from one of the hiking paths. The via ferrata Schwarzklamm with its breath-taking views is located close to the Langtalereckhütte and is ideal to combine with a bike tour. Climbers will find their home-base in the Obergurgler climbing garden.
