  • Directions

    The path takes you along the turquoise Silvretta Lake, into the Ochsental, towards the Wiesbadener Hut. Throughout, you always have the spectacular Piz Buin in view, which at 3,312 meters is the highest mountain in Vorarlberg. After about 2 hours of walking, you reach the Wiesbadener Hut, where you can refresh yourself with regional and traditional dishes. Of course, it’s also worth considering a stopover at the Green Summit on the way back.

    From the Wiesbadener Hut, the hiking trail continues towards the Green Summit, which lies at 2,579 meters.

    Your return path leads you back along the same trail past the Wiesbadener Hut and back to the Silvretta Lake.
