                The Kopsstausee, Vermuntstausee and Silvrettastausee lakes: a long and varied tour in the region of the High Alpine Road with many sections on asphalt.
            
                            
                Description
            
            
                As with tour G.2 (page 58), this route leads via the Zeinisjoch to the Kopsstausee lake. A very long and fast descent runs from here along an asphalt road which is not accessible to general traffic and which ends on a bend of the Silvretta High Alpine Road above the town of Partenen. From here, a lengthy ascent follows a series of endless twists and turns (and the road often has to be shared with lots of motorbikes and cars) up to the Vermuntstausee lake and on to the Bielerhöhe at the Silvrettastausee reservoir. This is the highest point on the tour at 2,036 m and is followed by a leisurely descent down along various forest tracks and cart paths and back along the road to 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: Galtür Dorfplatz
