East of Hotel Langtaufererhof, embedded in the snowcapped Ötztal glaciers along the main Alpine ridge, extends one of the most fascinating ski touring areas in the entire Alps. Feasable excursions for beginners lead to the Glockhauser (3,021 m) and Gamsspitz (3,066 m), sunny glacier tours lead to mount Großer Schafkopf (2,998 m) and Tscheyer Scharte (2,804 m)
