Night Train to Oetztal - Banhof
Bus at 6:30 to Zwieselstein (direction Obergurgl), wait 10 min and bus to Vent (~1h30 from the train station).
5min walk from the Bus stop to the start of the skiing
Hut_comment
Very nice hut, good food. A bit crowded but it was a nice weekend.
Commentaires personnels
The climb from Vent to Martin-Busch-Hütte feels very long (7km)... It's only 600m height difference on the map, but it goes up and down a bit, and it's just one really long traverse that blisters the ankles (as you're always on the same side)
