G.06 Alpkogelbahn - Kopsstausee - Zeinisjoch - Galtür

Simple circular tour to the Kops Reservoir and over the Zeinisjoch

A chairlift takes you to Alpkogelbahn mountain station to around 2.000 metres altitude. The route proceeds gently inclined past Breitspitzbahn until you finally reach the trail along the banks of the Kops reservoir. This part of the trail is also called the "hunter's trail", along the way you will pass several wooden animals and learn exciting facts about forest animals. Having arrived here you have a choice - either hike left across the reservoir wall to the kiosk at Kops reservoir, or proceed right along the trail along the bank direct to Alpengasthof Zeinisjoch. The Zeinisjoch mountain pass is not just a border area between Tyrol and Vorarlberg, the Rhine-Donau watershed also runs here. Alternative: Walk counter clockwise until you reach the Faulbrunnalm. From there further to the Weiberhimml restaurant and via the „Himmelpfad“ back to the village Return section: via the old Zeinisjochstraße, past the Klein Zeinishaus, until you reach Galtür.

The autoroute (A12 (westbound) or A14 (eastbound)) leads you to the Arlbergschnellstraße (S 16). At the exit for Pians, turn onto the Paznauntalstraße (B 188) and follow its course into the Paznaun.
