Boden

If you are looking for a hotel in Boden, you can plan your trip around the activities. Boden is considered a central starting point for numerous hikes and mountain tours. These include routes to named destinations and a loop through several hamlets. In winter, there is also a ski tour starting from Boden and a toboggan run near the mountain village. The destination, route type and season are particularly helpful when planning your trip.

Hikes to streams and Hanauer Hütte

The hike from Boden to Angerleboden starts at Gasthof Bergheimat. It crosses the bridge over the Fundaisbach and then follows the Angerlebach upstream to Angerleboden. The route therefore has a clear sequence: first the crossing over the Fundaisbach, then the path along the Angerlebach. Another hike leads from Boden through the Angerletal valley to Hanauer Hütte. After about 2 hours and 15 minutes, you reach the hut at an altitude of 1,922 metres.

The Boden–Fundaistal–Hanauer Hütte–Boden route offers a different type of tour: it starts and ends in Boden and is a circular hike covering 15.06 kilometres with 1,118 metres of elevation gain. The recommended ascent leads through the remote Fundaistal valley and past the Küblerwände and Fundaisplatten. While the hike to Angerleboden follows a stream upstream, the recommended ascent on this loop leads through the Fundaistal valley. The two routes therefore have different landscape features. When comparing the two tours to Hanauer Hütte, note that the approximate duration of 2 hours and 15 minutes applies to the hike from Boden to the hut, not to the circular hike.

Hamlets and traditional wooden houses

The Boden–Weilerrunde Pfafflar is a family hike that starts and ends in Boden. It passes through various hamlets from Boden to Pfafflar. In Brandegg and Unterhaus, you pass old, traditional wooden houses; the route eventually reaches Pfafflar via Ebele. This makes the loop distinct from a hike focused on reaching a mountain hut: here, the sequence of hamlets and the houses along the route are part of its character.

The route also differs from a tour that follows a stream or leads through a valley to a hut. If you are considering a loop with a destination in Pfafflar as you plan your trip, you will find the associated place names here, along with the starting and ending point in Boden. You can distinguish this family hike from the other hikes mentioned by its route and traditional wooden houses.

Ski tour and toboggan run in winter

The ski tour to Westliche Dremelscharte starts in Boden and passes Hanauer Hütte. It involves around 1,000 metres of elevation gain; the terrain in the upper section faces north. Conditions vary by season. The figures for elevation gain and aspect provide two different points of reference when planning the tour.

Near the mountain village of Boden, the challenging Boden-Hahntennjoch toboggan run runs through a side valley of the Lechtal valley. It extends for more than two kilometres from the mountain village of Pfafflar to Boden; winter operation depends on conditions. The toboggan run and the ski tour are therefore two different winter activities: one route runs from Pfafflar to Boden, while the ski tour starts in Boden and passes Hanauer Hütte.

Seasonal trip planning

During the summer months, a hiking bus runs between Imst and Elmen. If you include this seasonal connection in your trip planning, check the timetable before travelling. This will help you plan around the available connection and your planned activities.
