The end of the Stubai valley offers a huge amount of natural beauty. Thanks to the cable car, which takes you over two intermediate stations up to a height of around 3,200 meters above sea level, a variety of mountain landscapes and a whole range of other hiking options await you. Let's take a look at what can be done here.

Cable car to the top of the mountains

It is ideal to take the cable car to the very top early in the morning and get to know the individual intermediate stations on the way down. Be aware that there is a huge elevation gain ahead of you and some may have a problem with the quickly gained altitude.
