Muttakopf | Kreuzjoch

The hike starts in Spiss, passing Haus Bergfeld along a forest road. At the “Muttakopf Trail No. 9” sign, turn left onto a steep path leading to Muttakopf at 2,525 m. From the summit, enjoy breathtaking views of the neighboring village of Samnaun, Nauders, Lake Reschen, and the surrounding Ötztal Alps.

From the Muttakopf summit cross, the trail continues gently along the ridge to “In der Keil” at 2,679 m and then below the Rotspitze to the Kreuzjoch summit cross at 2,698 m. After a short break, the descent leads to Kobler Alm, perfect for a well-deserved rest.

The return follows scenic forest and meadow paths back to the hamlet of Gstalden, through the Tobel valley, and over the Heusattel back to Spiss.
