The trail leads from the central parking in Oetz along an asphalt road to the small village Habichen. In Habichen you cross the main road at the Hotel Waldhof, there the path continues through the forest and on meadow path. Further you walk on a small asphalt side road and cross the river on covered wooden bridge.
Tip: After approx. 300 meters you can turn right and walk to the small Habicher lake. The small detour takes about 15 minutes.
At the end of Habichen you walk up next to the main road. There you can turn right again and walk on a beautiful forest and meadow path, wich leads along the winter creek to the small village Tumpen.
