Ötztal Cycle Marathon Community Ride at the Tour of Austria
A special highlight awaits you on 12.07.2025. On this day, the 4th stage of the Tour of Austria leads from Innsbruck via Inzing and Telfs to Kühtai for the first time, then down to Oetz and via the Haiminger Sattele back up to Kühtai for the final mountain arrival.

The TOA is expected to cross the finish line at around 14:15.
