Themed Hikes

Schneeberg Mountain Hike

Rabenstein/Corvara, Moos in Passeier/Moso in Passiria, Meran/Merano and environs
from center

At an altitude of 2,355 m, the mining village on Schneeberg/Monte Neve is easily accessible – but only on foot. With its 800-year history, a unique landscape and gastronomic delights, the Schneeberg remains a highly-frequented tourist destination. In fact, the "Schneeberg" doesn't refer to a "mountain" as such – but rather to the whole mining complex. To the locals in the Passeiertal Valley, "Schneeberg" mainly refers to St. Martin/S. Martino's mining village that includes a mountain refuge with a restaurant and the Adventure mine; now a tourist attraction.

Itinerary
From the Timmelsbrücke bridge, follow marked trail no. 29 via the mountain huts Tomelekaser and Obergostalm towards the Schneeberger See lake. From here, follow the Knappensteig trail to the Schneeberghütte mountain hut. Continue to follow the marked trail signs, hiking up to the Karlscharte gap and down towards the Timmelsbach stream. From here, the tour heads towards the Großer Schwarzsee lake. Afterwards, head left and down towards the idyllically situated mountain hut Timmelsalm for refreshments. Descend via a comfortable service road back to the starting point on the Timmelsjochstraße road.
