The cycle trail starts in the village center of Haiming. Protected by the mountain ranges surrounding the valley entrance, the village offers a wonderfully pleasant climate with little rain and lots of sun. The mild temperatures make it the heart of Tirolean apple cultivation and so the cycle trail also leads past the fabulous Apple Mile before it continues to Ötztal-Bahnhof via the hamlets of Magerbach and Schlierenzau. Continue through a forest on several hundred meters parallel to the rail tracks to AREA 47, the largest outdoor adventure park in all Austria. From here you proceed in a southerly direction, off the main road through the hamlets of Brunau and along the Ötztaler Ache mountain brook to Oetz.
