From the Edelweiss hut in Ladurns, follow the narrow path no. 34 A to a flat area. Crossing this, you reach an ascent that gradually becomes steeper and climbs over a scree slope to the Lotterscharte (2139 m). From here, the trail descends moderately steeply to the alpine village of Vallming, where everything has been preserved in its original state. Take a sharp left and cross an overgrown slope on trail no. 19A. After a steep hairpin bend, you reach the small lake "Kastellacke". Turn right and descend slightly on path no. 19 to the Sterzingerhütte on the Rosskopf. Descent option to Sterzing (descent 970 metres) or back via the outward route.

The small Geisler-round is with over 20 km and nearly 1800 height-meters a long and challenging Mountaintour in the wonderful Villnösser Mountainformation. Only for trained and mountain experienced hiker.

The observation tower at the ridge of the Schwarzenstein… North of Luttach/Lutago we can see the sharp spike of the Wolfskofel which stands there like an observation tower. It is situated at the end of the south-eastern ridge of the Schwarzenstein and is the landmark mountain of Luttach/Lutago. It also offers excellent views from the top, especially the peaks of Großer Löffler and Schwarzenstein seem very close. The Schönberg to the west and the surrounding panorama are the reward for the rather strenuous ascent. The summit area made out of limestone and dolomite is interesting from a geological point of view. On the top there is a short, exposed climbing section; therefore sure footedness and not suffering from vertigo are an absolute must.

The Piz Cavalaccio/Chavalatsch (2.763m), a beautifully situated mountain of the Fallatsch ridge, between the Passo dello Stelvio and the Val Müstair, offers one of the most beautiful summit views of the Vinschgau Valley. Next to the summit cross is a former Italian customs hut, which now serves as a relay station for radio amateurs in the Vinschgau Valley. This rewarding mountain hike has no difficulties worth mentioning. The paths are very gentle and there are no exposed or difficult parts. Since the described ascent is via the sun-exposed side, an ascent at the warmest time of day may be avoided.

 

From Gossensass, drive about 2 km into the Pflerschtal valley and then turn right towards Giggelberg. After passing under the railway tracks, follow the mountain road to the junction in Innergiggelberg (no driving sign, limited parking). From here, trail no. 1 leads steadily uphill to yoke Sandjöchl (2165 m), overcoming an altitude difference of 800 metres. You should therefore reckon with a walking time of 3.5 - 4 hours. Once at the top, you can enjoy a fantastic view of the Stubai Valley. The descent follows the same route.

The panoramic trail of the Ultental valley, trail Mark 12, is a spectacular circular hike in the Ultental valley. With a total length of almost 50 kilometers, the route can be completed in two to three days (approximately 20 hours of walking) and offers diverse and captivating landscapes.

Starting in Kuppelwies, the trail traverses the sunlit side, passing numerous rustic alpine huts of the Ultental valley until reaching the Höchsterhütte at the Grünsee lake, where you can enjoy breathtaking views of the highest peaks in the Ultental valley. Situated in the heart of the Stilfserjoch National Park, the path continues to the Haselgruber Hut and the Haselgruber Lakes, which provide a picturesque setting.

The next section leads to the Peak of Karspitze, the highest point of the hike at over 2,700 m, before heading towards the Alplahner See lake. From there, the trail winds through the Klapfberg Valley, passing the Bichl Alm down to the Auerbergalm, where you can experience the beautiful surroundings and typical landscapes of the Ultental valley.

Isolated, steep, with a marvellous view… Ascending the Schaufler is exhausting and steep. The advantage, however, is that even in high season you will not come across many people so you can enjoy the silence and the solitude. From the Hochlärcher Wasen alpine pasture, there is a steep narrow path to the peak of the Schaufler where you have a stunning view of the surrounding mountains. On top you must be sure-footed and you can not suffer from vertigo. For experienced hikers, however, the tour is easy.

A certain measure of sure-footedness and a good head for heights is needed for this Alpine tour. Below the ridge, there are a few uncomfortable passages on the craggy trail. Between the ridge and the peak, the terrain is steep and somewhat exposed. However, the well-trodden trail is well constructed everywhere where possible. The return trail between the ridge and the peak is on the Sarntal valley side. From the peak, magnificent panoramic views can be enjoyed.

This long, exceptionally beautiful loop route leads out from Weißlahnbad to the Bärenloch on the Schlern and back through the Bärenfalle gully to your set-off point. For this tour, you must be sure-footed and have a good head for heights.

The yoke crossings are known as the old paths of smugglers between the Ahrntal valley and Austria. Especially the Keilbachjoch. This prompted the Kassel section of the German Alpine Club and Martin Gamper, hut keeper of the Kasseler Hütte, to call this tour "Ahrntaler smuggler paths".
