Explanation
Start your hike in the center of Sölden and head past the church towards the district of Innerwald. From there, follow a steep paved path uphill to Innerwald.
Continue through the Innerwald forest until you reach the Ötztal Glacier Road, which you follow up to the “Stiegele” junction.
From Stiegele, the trail continues as a forest road, initially flat and then gently ascending. The path often runs parallel to the ski slope.
After several bends, you will arrive at Gasthof Sonneck, where you can enjoy a cozy rest with beautiful views.
