Last weekend I went on a hiking tour with some friends of mine.

Our goal was the Wetterkreuz (2.591m) above Oetz in the Stubaier Alpen.

From Oetz (village in the Oetz valley) we took the bus to the Issalm and from there on we went up the Wörgetal, passing by the small Buchersee, all the way to the Wetterkreuz.

From there we had a fantastic view over the Oetztal, the Inntal and parts of the Austrian Alps.

This shot is from the beginning of the hike - after approx. 1hr of walking you reach the small Buchersee 2.007m), which offers nice view up the Wörgetal. It looks inviting for swimming, but as the water of the lake comes down from the surrounding mountains, a swim i a very cold pleasure.

the mountain you can see to the very right is the Zwölferkogel (2.253m), our way however, lead us to the left, up the valley...more photos to follow ;)

thanks - would have been even better, if there'd been no wind

Looks like a nice area! I bet that place would look amazing around sunset!

glad you like it - yes, it might be worth a night hike up there.
but the mountains are to the west of the lake, so they a re kinda blocking the sunset.
but from the Wetterkreuz you sure have a fantastic view around sunset.
