The sculpture trail starts directly next to the valley station of Rifflseebahn gondola. Wheelchair users can easily access the first section of the trail as the stone sculptures are erected next to the tarmac trail. There is only a minor incline at the start where little help is required. Some of the stone sculptures are right next to the trail, others can be viewed from afar. Overall, this wheelchair-accessible section of the sculpture trail takes approx. half an hour and it returns to the starting point in the village adjacent to the main road.
 

Swiss Trac Tour: From the car park the valley station of Rifflseebahn gondola is accessed on level ground. Several steps up to the ticket office can be accessed via a short, but steep ramp. Proficient Swiss-Trac users can mange the gradient of the ramp. Please note that railings restrict access to the area outside the ticket office. You will also have to pass through this area in order to access the ground-level toilets around the corner of the building. Please note that these toilets are not suitable for wheelchair users. Access to the gondola is via a second, longer steep ramp. Even Swiss-Trac users would be advised to have someone to assist them for this section. The gondola is accessed via a step and the space between the benches allows for a wheelchair with a maximum width of 60 cm. The Swiss-Trac can be transported in the next gondola with an assisting person. Once at the mountain station, the helpful gondola staff will stop the gondola once again to allow for an easy exit. Immediately after leaving the gondola you can see Lake Rifflsee, a glacial lake nestled in a hollow that features are 3 km long circular route.
Directly next to the mountain station is “Sunna Alm” mountain restaurant. The circular route starts from here and also passes the jetty of the raft ride. The first 500 m are a steep descent and water gullies have to be traversed. Once the path levels off in the coombe of the lake the path is relatively level and well prepared. The second half of the circular trail, from the bridge onwards is more uneven with larger stones. The ascent back up to “Sunna Alm” is quite steep again. It takes approx. 1 hour to complete the route and return to your starting point. Enjoy magnificent views of Lake Rifflsee from the sun terrace of the mountain restaurant. The restaurant area of “Sunna Alm” is very spacious. The toilets are in the basement and cannot be accessed by wheelchair.

Swiss-Trac Tour:
Use the car park at the end of the valley in Mittelberg, where a broad service road leads up to the catered mountain hut “Gletscherstube” on 1,926 m. The path to “Gletscherstube” is approx. 2 km long and is manageable with the Swiss-Trac in ca. 30 min. You can admire the end of the valley from the sun terrace. The anteroom of the toilet is accessible by mounting one step, however, the toilet cubicle door cannot be accessed as its door opens to the inside and it can therefore not be locked.
Altitude difference: ca. 120m, maximum gradient 5°

Access:
From the Glacier Restaurant at the top station of Pitztal's Gletscherexpress via a short downhill stretch on ski piste number 25 to Gletschersee base station of Mittelbergbahn. The ascent route starts right at the base station next to the signpost.
 
Characteristics and Description:
Red Piste – Intermediate ski tour along the ski run
From the starting point at the Gletschersee chair lift base station you keep to the left edge of the ski run (seen from the valley) on ski piste number 36. Right at the start, close to the base station, there is a very tricky narrow section covering about 50 meters. Watch out for oncoming sportspeople. After another 500-meter stretch the ascent route travels along the ski piste number 36. A moderately climbing section in the lower third is followed by a separate ascent track, leaving behind the ski run. Shortly before you reach the top station of Mittelbergbahn, in the surroundings of Mittelbergjoch saddle, you reach the ski piste number 36 again. A last but pleasant ascent on the left edge of the ski run (seen from the valley) takes you to the top station of Mittelbergbahn. A very lovely route just perfect for slightly advanced ski touring fans.
