View of the Passo del Rombo Valley

Highlight • Viewpoint

The valley is wonderful.
Passeier a historic long-distance trade route. Mule tracks connected it via the Timmelsjoch with the Ötztal and the upper Inn Valley on the one hand, and via the Jaufen Pass with Sterzing, the Brenner Pass and Innsbruck on the other. Because of the fork in both pass routes, St. Leonhard was the strategically most important trading center in Passeier; there the horses were changed and the goods transhipped. The most common family name in St. Leonhard, Haller, can be traced back to this, which in turn goes back to the packers (salt freighters, also called Haller) who transported salt from North Tyrol and wine from South and Welschtirol to Meran.

Passo del Rombo / Timmelsjoch (2,509 m)

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Timmelsjoch is undoubtedly one of the most impressive places in the Ötztal: far the rugged mountains open all the way down to the valley and the wind slowly drives the clouds over the peaks. The Timmelsjoch is the highest road in the Alps, and in the summer countless cyclists fight their way up the countless serpentines.

At the top of the Joch is also a small inn, in which both hikers and cyclists can strengthen.

Hairpin Bends of Passo del Rombo

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Passo del Romo on the Italian side has 2 "tornanti" zones: in the first kilometers of the port, but especially in the final kilometers. In both places you get some spectacular photos.

October 3, 2023,🇦🇹 Ötztal - Timmelsjoch - Rabenstein 🇮🇹 - 🔙

After my overnight stay in Oetz, the start of today's tour was a little further up in the Ötztal, just behind Huben, at a fresh 6.5° degrees🥶.
From there we went through the Ötztal up to Zwieselstein, where I had to take a short warm-up break with a cup of ☕️ in Sölden 😀.
Although it was a steady climb …
