Mountain Trail Descent to the Valley

Highlight • Trail

Good footwear is required here. The path goes over hill and dale and often changes direction. But: It's a lot of fun! 🏞

Nice little hiking trail to the upper reservoir or a stopover for the valley trail!

Finstertal Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The Finstertal reservoir is a reservoir near Kühtai in Tyrol at an altitude of 2,300 meters.

It is quite exciting to look at the turquoise shimmering ice-cold water. However, the warehouse is not developed for tourism (no circular hiking trail, no restoration, no toilet). The next refreshment stop is 200 meters away, it is the Drei-Seen-Hütte.

Today I was able to motivate my three women to do a somewhat more demanding tour from Kühtai to the Finstertaler Speicher. The round was only about 400 meters in altitude, but away from the gravel paths on stony paths in the mountain. At an altitude of over 2,300 meters, my youngest was a little weak, but "the worst" was …

Komoot probably cheated a bit with the walking time. It probably didn't recognize the ascent, which was slow because of the steepness and stones, as movement...

Walking time approx. 4h30min determined with another app

Hi!
On the 2nd day of our holiday in Austrian Kühtai near Oetz, we have our first tour with over 300 meters of altitude. We were really excited and curious to see if we would actually be able to complete the route.
The official route started directly from the car park in Kühtai, but we started from the DreiSeenBahn gondola …

A top hike that can only be recommended. Magnificent views, crystal-clear mountain lakes and challenging as well as different types of paths - what more could a hiker's heart desire. However, you should be reasonably good on foot and hiking poles are helpful - especially when descending. Here it is literally over hill and dale and one or the other …

At an altitude of around 2,020 meters, Kühtai is one of the highest winter sports resorts in Austria. In summer, you can escape the sweltering city heat there. Normally, the resort is easily accessible by train and bus, but currently it's much more inconvenient due to rail replacement services between Salzburg and Wörgl and Innsbruck.

The Three Lakes hike is really a fantastic hiking trail.
If you turn left at the starting point, it is definitely a pleasant climb. The lakes are so clear that you can see the bottom. A dream, I could have spent hours there. The climb is definitely doable with a child.
When descending after the Three Lakes Hut, children who …

The peaks up there are still a bit tricky...lots of old snow fields...So it's better to take a leisurely circular hike from the 3 Seen Lift car park. Along the toboggan run up to the Finstertal reservoir and over the "Oberer Plenderlesee" to the Drei Seen Hütte. Continue over the "Unterer Plenderlesee" to the Hirschebensee, and back to the car …
