Huben at the southern end of the Längenfeld Basin

Huben lies at the southern end of the Längenfeld Basin at an elevation of 1,200 metres, between the larger villages of Längenfeld and Sölden. If you are looking for a hotel in Huben, these details provide an initial geographical orientation: they place the destination in the basin and locate it in relation to two larger reference points. The landscape, trails, alpine destinations and culture can each offer a different point of interest as you make your decision.

Location and views

The Längenfeld/Huben valley basin offers beautiful panoramic views. From the terrace at Breitlehnalm, you can see across the Längenfeld valley basin and the Ötztal mountain landscape. This means you can enjoy both a panorama across the basin and the view from the alpine pasture terrace. If the landscape is a factor in your choice of destination, you can consider the view across the valley basin and the perspective from Breitlehnalm as two distinct points of interest.

Trails, starting points and destinations

Hahlkogel Haus and the Feuerstein alpine inn can be reached directly from Huben. Breitlehnalm is a starting point for trails to Polltalalm and Hahlkogelhaus. If you include individual destinations in your plans, you will find both places with a direct connection to Huben and trails that begin at Breitlehnalm. There are also scenic, branching trails between the municipal districts of Au, Winklen, Dorf, Ried, Oberreid, Runhof and Huben. This trail network connects several named districts and offers a different point of reference from the individually named alpine destinations.

A culinary connection at Polltalalm

Polltalalm also offers a culinary experience. It serves Tyrolean specialities and offers a range of products from its own dairy. These are two distinct aspects of the same place: prepared Tyrolean dishes and products from its own dairy. Together with its role as a destination on trails from Breitlehnalm, Polltalalm offers a distinctive feature for your travel plans as well as a connection to the trail network.

Art in the parish church of St Martin

One cultural point of interest in Huben is the parish church of St Martin. Its high altar painting depicts St Martin sharing his cloak and was painted by Theres Strigl from Sautens. The subject and the artist’s attribution can thus be identified in a specific work. If you are interested in religious art as well as landscapes and trails, this altarpiece adds a distinct focus to the other points of interest in the area.

Activities in the Ötztal

The Ötztal offers opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, Nordic walking, running and climbing. This list covers a range of activities and gives you an overview of what is available in the region. For geographical context, it is useful to distinguish this broader scope from the specific trails and alpine destinations: the activities are available across the Ötztal, while Huben is named as a direct reference point for certain trails and Breitlehnalm as a starting point. This allows you to distinguish between regional activities and named destinations.
