Getting there in time

The bus 590 from Innsbruck runs about every 30 minutes and takes about 45 to 50 minutes; we could not confirm its first and last departures, so check VVT. See getting there and Innsbruck to the glacier.

Plan to be at the valley station by 08:30 on a powder or weekend day, and keep a margin for the last ride down. Last ride times can differ between lifts, so ask at the counter.
