20. Premium Winterwanderweg Zeinis

Moderately difficult winter hike Zeinis - Kops

The area around the Zeinis & Kops reservoirs is surely one of the most idyllic spots in Paznaun. By the border between Tirol & Vorarlberg, impressive views of the sheltering giants of the Silvretta group await. The route starts in Wirl district opposite the St. Antonius chapel – just before “Hotel Wirlerhof“. Past the “Hotel Almhof“, a steady climb on the old “Zeinisstraße“ leads towards Zeinis or Kops.

The last bit before the two lakes is level again. First you‘ll get to the smaller Zeinis reservoir, then Kops reservoir. An impressive backdrop for all winter sports fans opens up here! Please note that no rest stops with food or drink are available up here. 

No short-cut by bus is possible.

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.

Car park Birkahahnbahn Galtür

With the railway station in Landeck, the Paznaun is optimally connected to the Austrian train network. From Landeck-Zams station, only a short bus ride separates you from the Paznaun. Every half hour, line bus 260 runs from there through the valley. Bus stop: Wirl/Birkhahnbahn
