Vent
is a small village in Ötztal, at almost 1900m altitude. From here you
can go
by aerial cableway...
|
Up to
Stablein at 2300m. Here's where the trek towards Wildes Mannle begins.
In the background is Talleitspitze, 3406m. |

|
|
To the
west you can see Breslauer Hütte. From there the slopes continue up
towards Urkundkolm. |
After a while you can see the
top, it doesn't look far at all. But 700 altitude meters takes some
time anyway. |
|

|
The
most impressive with this climb is that you pass the slopes of
Wildspitze, the
second highest mountain in Austria, 3774m. Here is the glacier from
Wildspitze
down to Rofenkar. |
After a little steeper section
it levels out again and we can see the peak ahead. |

Wildspitze seen from the top of Wildes
Mannle. A small madonna figure in
bronze is placed here. |
You
can choose to continue on Rofenkarsteig, over the ridge a bit and then
down the steeper slope to the left. This path is a little more
demanding, with longer parts secured by wire, but it's nice. |

A look
up the steep slope of Rofenkarsteig. From here you pass by the glacier,
then climb to...
|
Breslauer
Hütte at 2844m. The weather is getting worse now, so we quickly
continue up towards Urkundkolm. |
|
|
|
 |
 |
|
|
|
The
path to Urkundkolm is easier than Wildes Mannle. In the background, in
clouds, is Ötztaler Urkund, 3554m.
