Hiking

Trail b | Aldein - Montan

Aldein/Aldino
Black and White Trail stage from Aldein to Montan through forests and scenic landscapes, descending from alpine terrain to the wine-growing area.
from center

On this segment, you will proceed from Aldein uphill to Montan. At first, you can proceed along a relatively relaxing trail until you reach Holen. From there, it gets steeper until you reach the Aldein Bridge (known as the "Little European Bridge" when first built in the 1960s). This is a good opportunity to make a rest-stop and/or get some refreshments. You then continue along the former route of the Fleims Valley railroad, through spruce forests (common here on the southwest flank of the Cislon). Just before arriving at Montan, you'll pass by the Elsenhof farmstead and the impressive Enn Castle. Then, continue via the "Wine Forest Water" Trail to the center of the village of Montan, famed for its Pinot Noir, at an elevation of 500 meters above sea-level. This is the end of the route.

Itinerary
The hike starts in the centre of Aldein. The trail first crosses the varied landscape of the Regglberg with meadows, forests and traditional farms. Following the marked paths, it gradually descends towards Truden and continues to Montan. Along the route, shaded forest sections alternate with open areas offering panoramic views over South Tyrol’s Lowlands. The final section passes through vineyards above Montan before reaching the historic village centre.
