From the Freizeit Arena Sölden you turn right and follow the road to Hotel Sunny.

From there you turn right onto the forestry path above the meadows to Kaisers. 

From Kaisers you can either walk the same way back or you can take the paved road along the Ötztaler Ache via Schmiedhof and Rechenau back to the Freizeit Arena Sölden.

Author’s recommendation

If you change the route a bit and do not walk through the forest (and stay on the paved path), this trail is also suitable for children and buggies.

You also pass the playground "Waldele" on the way.
