The hike starts at the parking lots on the road called Telferweg in Untertelfes. From here, follow trails no. 4A and 5 to the Ochsenalm mountain hut, where the Miner’s World begins. Along the route, numerous information panels at original sites – accompanied by striking views of the surrounding alpine landscape – offer fascinating insights into the miners’ lives and work. This trail recalls and vividly illustrates the history of mining, which has shaped Telfes and the surrounding area for centuries.
By scanning the QR codes displayed along the route, you can access videos that explore the different aspects of mining in greater depth, providing clear and engaging explanations. This themed trail invites you to embark on a journey through mining history step by step.
The return route leads down into the valley to just below the Freundalm mountain hut, before heading back to the starting point along the same trail.
The opening hours of mountain and alpine huts can be found here.
The starting point can be reached by bus line 315 (Sterzing/Vipiteno – Thuins/Tunes – Telfes/Telves). Get off at the “Untertelfes/Telves di Sotto” stop. Further information on timetables and connections is available at www.suedtirolmobil.info/en.
