Turn-by-turn directions

The Panorama Trail is also perfectly suitable for e-bikers as it features only some 20% of gravel surface. Most sections travel along asphalt routes. It is known as an easy and quite short trail with almost no change in altitude.

You start at Bikeschule Ötztal in Sölden, pedaling towards the hamlet of Windau. At the height of Gaislachkogl mountain gondola you reach the main road which takes you to the recycling plant.

Behind the helicopter port you turn into a gravel trail which takes you back to the panoramic Glacier Road and down to the hamlet of Innerwald. From here you return to the starting point on a descending trail.
