    The walk starts from the soccer field in Huben and leads to the Polles Alm. From the starting point you follow the wide forest path in the direction of Alpengasthof am Feuerstein. After about 3 km, the path continues to the right past the small chapel in the direction of Polles Alm. The path initially falls off a bit, but then continues to ascend into the Pollestal. To the left of the path you can hear the water of the Pollesschlucht. In front of the hut, the trail rises again until it leads flat to Polles Alm.

     

    Author’s recommendation

    The first part of the hike can also be done via the legend trail. Display boards and sculptures tell 14 different legends of the Ötztal.
