This hike at the foot of the southern Stubai Alps is little frequented, very scenic, and passes through unspoiled mountain scenery by the lakes. From the parking lot at the State Mining Museum, take trail no. 28 up to the managed Moarerbergalm (Poschhaus). At the foot of the rock face, leave trail no. 28 towards St. Martin am Schneeberg and keep right, where in 1.5 hours you climb steeply on trail no. 33 towards the Moarer Egetseen. At the Egetjoch (2639 m), you reach the highest point of the route and then descend either left past the Eget lakes (no. 33A) or right (no. 33) directly down to the Trüben See. The descent to the valley takes about 2 hours again. Stamina and sure-footedness required! (On request, it is also possible to take the bus up to the Moarerbergalm, saving about 700 meters in elevation and about 2 hours of walking.)
Author’s recommendation
Tip: You can book a bus via the Mining Museum that takes you early in the morning to the Poschhaus. This saves you a long stretch on the forest road.
