Objevte krásy Vinschgau

The Seebodenspitze peak rises above Haidersee Lake in the upper Venosta valley. The mountain is particularly popular as it is not necessary to start the hike in the valley but from the Haideralm/Malga S. Valentino at 2,100m, which can be reached by cable car from St. Valentin. Walk from the Haideralm through the pine forest and across grazing grounds on the gently rising, then steepening climb signposted no. 10 up to the “Schwarzer Kofel”. Cross large rocks on the ridge and from there walk to the summit. From the summit enjoy the far-reaching mountain landscape of the upper Inntal valley and upper Vinschgau valley. Descend via a small detour (“Three Lakes”) back to the Haideralm.

Magnificent panoramic mountain hike overlooking the Resia Pass holiday area. From Haideralm/Malga S. Valentino, north-eastwards on the path signposted no. 9, follow the mountain path towards Schöneben/Belpiano until the beautiful viewpoint at the “Rote Eck” at 2,299m. Walk further north to the signpost showing the junction westward to the Elfer mountain via the path signposted no. 9. Initially over slopes covered in flowers, becoming steeper as you approach the Hoaderschartl ridge at 2,743m. Sure-footedness is needed for the northward walk across the rocky and partially exposed ridge ending at the flat summit, which presents a magnificent panoramic view. The descent follows the same route as the one going up.
Alternative: Start the hike from the valley following the path signposted no. 9 from St. Valentin to the Haideralm, for approximately two hours.

A beautiful mountain hike, which requires you to be sure footed and with a head for heights. The hike starts at the Maseben mountain hut from where you follow the path signposted no. 18. From Maseben turn left and arrive at two small lakes. Walk past the lakes to the right of the river towards the Valbenair valley. At the end of the ski-lift there is a wide-open area. Cross the plain and walk slightly uphill to the left of the Tiergartenspitze peak. Once over the hill, the path turns slightly to the left and you encounter increasingly rocky terrain. After a while, approach the summit ridge and the terrain becomes noticeably steeper. In the middle of the northern flank, the path goes up to Mitterloch Spitze peak. The descent follows the same route as the one going up.

Rewarding summit tour at Val Venosta’s Sun Mountain. Take the San Martino in Monte cable car to reach lofty heights. This excursion to Cima Vermoi starts at the mountain station.

From the valley to the mountain huts on foot. You will be rewarded by three mountain huts that spoil you with typical delicacies!

The Plattweg trail takes you to the lonely South Tyrolean mountain world, with far reaching views of the Resia Lake. From the station at the top of the Haideralm/Malga S. Valentino follow the forest road towards the valley until the path forks for the first time. From there follow the forest road signposted no. 18 to the left. The long gravel path offers some clearings with beautiful views over the valley. The forest road signposted no. 11 branches off to the right, crossing a forest road three times. At the third crossing leave the path signposted no. 11, follow the forest path signposted no. 18A to the right, cross the Vallatschbach river until the path joins the forest path signposted no. 9, which leads to Plagött and then to the village of St. Valentin.
Alternative: Follow the path signposted no. 11 without changing to the path signposted no. 18A. The last section is an asphalted road from Kaschon to St. Valentin

Beautiful hike in Matschertal valley to the idyllic mountain lake at the foot of the Saldurkamm ridge.

Summit tour with unuspected views over tha Val Venosta mountains

 

From the end of the village near the St. Anna chapel right up to the forest, there turn left to "Salg", continue on the forest road to the hamlet of Klopair with descent to Resia or descent to Arlund and back across the sea to Graun.

From Melag (car park) in northern direction diagonally left to the upper end of the drag lift. From there diagonally right over the southern slope up to a level with a crossroads (2090 m). Flat right to the bridge over the Melager stream. On the right side of the valley inwards to point 2321 m on the map. Here the brooks divide ("Zwischenbach" on the map). One climbs up a little steeply to the left of the right stream and ends on a hill at the beginning of a wide, flat valley. Through this valley to its end. There through a short but steep hollow up to a saddle (2600 m). Through the following, flat hollow at the left edge until
to their end. Up through a hollow again. Then first right over a ridge and further left into a flat depression (2800 m). Through it, then again left through a hollow and right up to the yoke with the wayside cross. Up to the elevation at 3049 m, one climbs another half hour with the skis on the left and then over a short ridge - not difficult - to the worthwhile lookout point with a pole.

The archaelogical Ötzi Trail walk starts at Kortsch/Corzes, leading up the barren Monte Sole Mountain to the ruins of the little church of St. George and continues along the Schlandrauntal Valley up to Corces Lake. This magnificent though challenging hike is recommended only for seasoned hikers. Since the return trip is by scheduled bus service, the bus timetable should be obtained beforehand.

 

 

Family-friendly hike, suitable for buggies. In the village of St. Valentin/San Valentino, immediately after the “Camping zum See”, the path turns left before a wooden bridge. Continue straight on through the biotope and along the side of the lake towards the village of Fischerhäuser. Along the path there are numerous opportunities to rest. The path splits after the bridge, surrounded by reeds and sounds from the fauna. The upper asphalt path is for cyclists; the path below for walkers. The path undulates gently through an idyllic forest. On this side of the lake there are some cosy places to stay.
Note: Start the lake tour from a variety of points in either direction.

The Ratschill tour begins right at the San Martino mountain station and heads through the meadows of the Annenberg plain towards the picturesque Oberratschill farm, before continuing up the Lottersteig towards Coldrano.

From Gasthof Alpenfriede across meadows to the left onto a forest path. On this up to the level of a mountain barn, turn left there and follow the old military road until you cross the forest line. Caution is advised there. After that the terrain becomes pleasant and flat. Over wide hollows to the right of the saddle, Wetterkreuz, past and up to Wölfelesjoch. There the prominent south ridge begins, which is partly done on skis and on foot.

Mittereck Mountain in Vallelunga is truly magnificent skiing. The route is quite clear and there is a very low avalanche risk—as long as you make sensible choices. Just one safety note: good equipment, an appropriate level of physical fitness, comprehensive planning of the ski tour, and the ability to recognise natural hazards are essential. Slope orientation: North Starting point: Caprone/Kapron, Gehöft Perwag

A wonderful hike with some beautiful views of the valley as you ascend. Starting from the kitestation in Graun/Curon, starting point South Graun/Curon, you cross the state road and follow path no. 10 across the meadows "Arlui". Then follow the forest road (no. 10) with beautiful views over the lake on a steady, gentle incline through the forest to the Grauner Alm alpine pasture, which is popularly known by the Rhaetian name "Vivana". The alpine pasture is an alpine dairy and is not farmed. The way back is on the same path as the ascent.

This mountain tour to Piz Chavalatsch promises a unique panoramic view of the Ortler Cevedale mountain range, the mountains of the Swiss Engadin as well as the peaks of the upper and lower Venosta valley.

The hike begins at the Schöneben valley station. From there, take the cable car to the mountain station. Following Trail no. 9b across idyllic alpine meadows, you reach the first of the three peaks - the Zehnerkopf at 2,675 m. Route no. 9b leads somewhat steeper up to the Elfer peak (2,926 m). Alternatively, you can hike straight from path 10 to path 8 + 8b to Zwölfer peak (2,783 m). The summit tour promises a beautiful view of the Lake Resia, the upper Vinschgau valley and the peaks of the Langtauferer valley. The descent leads back via Trail no. 8 and the same time via the last summit, the Zwölfer peak (2,738 m), to the mountain station. After a break in the mountain restaurant, the cable car takes you back down to the valley.

Long, very worthwhile and panoramic circular hike in alpine terrain during which you round the Zwölferkreuz peak. And the variant directly takes you to the peak!

A hike to a striking, but easy to climb mountain over 3,000m on the south side of the Langtaufers valley. The starting point for this hike is the Maseben mountain hut. Follow from there the path signposted no. 19, across stony terrain and over a grassy old moraine wall, then straight up until you reach the west-facing hillside, then over stone slabs directly up to a flat mountain hollow. Follow the signposted trail over steep rocks up to the summit of the Tiergartenspitze peak. If you are not too late, you can observe the inhabitants: groundhogs, golden eagles and chamois. The descent follows the same route as the one going up.
Alternative: If you want to start this hike from the hamlet of Kappl, walk along the forest road to the path no. 19/19A to the Maseben mountain hut or use the shuttle service (only during winter).

Soon after the chapel of the Weißkugelhütte mountain hut at 2,542 m, the “Richter Steig” path leads in eastern direction to the panoramic southern slope comfortably into the valley up to the mountain and ice barrier of the Vernagl slopes. Here, the slightly exposed climb (Attention in case of ice!) leads northward via partially secured passages over rock up to the Gepatschferner glacier, past the imposing glacier sceneries of the ice rifts.  This is were you will need your crampons and rope. After a steeper ramp - potentially tricky when the surface is covered with bare ice - you reach the upper flat ground of the mighty Gepatschferner: Towards your left (northward), there is a slight ascent not far from the left rocky crest in the direction of Weißseespitze; whereas straight on (eastward) leads to the Brandenburg House. We therefore climb up the moderately rugged, slightly ascending terrain to the Weißseespitze: After the 2 km long “Gletscherhaatscher”, we suddenly find ourselves on the flat cap of the Weißseespitze.

Start at Malga di Tarres and go to the Zirmruan Hut (closed). Turn right just before the hut and follow the well-marked path to the weather cross (2.436 m).

The hamlet of Rojen/Roja is one of the highest settlements in South Tyrol and the Rojental valley is one of its hidden jewels. The circular hike starts at the car park in Rojen and leads orographically left on the path towards the end of the valley. Walking along the Rojen river, passing beautiful mountain meadows and original hay barns, you reach a plateau where the path leads into the path signposted no. 8A.

Note: The round trip is possible in either direction, with light footwear.

Starting point of the ski tour to the Glockhauser mountain is the car park in Melago/Melag. From there north-westward across soft ground up to the last post of a disused ski lift. Across the steep slope towards the right and further towards Melagtal Valley. At the bridge, cross to the right-hand side of the valley and at a height of 2,300 m veer left to the Schönkar ridge. After the large trough from right to left across stepped terrain on to a shoulder. Across the back, left up to the ridge (take care!) and further up to the summit.
