The
path to Narrenkogel begins in the village Niederthai on about 1500m
altitude.
Niederthai is in a sidevalley of Ötztal, above Umhausen. A simple tour
that's
suitable for us as the weather only permits a hike in the afternoon.
|
The path
up through the forest is fairly steep, and there is no great views
until we reach 2000m. Here you can see Ötztal. |

Stratus clouds forming both
below and above us provides an additional effect to
the scenery.

There
are two crosses at the Narrenkogel. One smaller at the highest peak,
and
one larger at the best viewpoint. |
Our path continues along the
ridge Am Joch, on the way to Poschachkogel. Here's a look to the north,
towards Inntal. |

|
|
To the south from Am Joch you can see Ötztal
winding away towards the high
passes leading to Italy. |
