    Winter hikes in Meran/Merano and environs

    During winter hikes on groomed trails, you will get to know South Tyrol's quiet side. Discover enchanting viewing points in the mountains, snow-covered forests in quiet side valleys and enjoy nature by yourself in complete silence. On snow shoes, you travel away from the ski slopes and lifts into untouched forests. This is how snowshoe hiking and winter hiking becomes a true experience.

    Round trip along the ancient "Waalweg" (irrigation channel) of Partschins/Parcines
    Partschins/Parcines, Meran/Merano and environs

    This is one of the oldest irrigation canals (Waalweg) of Merano and environs!
    It was built in the XV century by the Counts of Stachelburg and is, therefore, more than five hundred years old. The canal is lined by birch-tree groves and rich, varied vegetation and is still used to irrigate the Parcines orchards, meadows and fields. 
    An ancient “Wohnstein”, a free-standing, curved rock in whose shadow ancient people lived, and a pre-historic “Schalenstein” – a stone with strange round-shaped indentations on it, dating back to the Copper Age, can be seen at the eastern end of the Waal path.
    This particular walk is especially interesting for those interested in local history.

Like at the Timmelsalm mountain hut, numerous cattle graze the pastures of the Lazinser Alm.
    Difficulty: a problem-free hike in every aspect, suitable even for weaker hikers or children. Walking time from Pfelders/Plan, approx. 1 hour and 15 minutes.

    Terrain Cure Trail 1 - Circular trail: Aschbach - Vigiljoch - Aschbach
    Algund/Lagundo, Meran/Merano and environs

    The climatic terrain cure is a special form of exercise therapy characterised by activity adapted to one’s fitness level, endurance training, and time spent in the outdoors experiencing the landscape, which is carried out through a personalised walking programme.

    So-called terrain hiking improves endurance and agility, increases speed and flexibility, reinforces the cardiovascular system, stimulates breathing activity and strengthens muscles, ligaments and joints. It has a positive impact on the metabolism, activates the digestive system and noticeably increases the expenditure of calories.
    The climatic terrain cure is recommended for functional cardiovascular disorders, respiratory and metabolic disorders, and above all is a tried and tested method of primary prevention and general health promotion.
    The "Terrainkur" trails in Partschins/Parcines have been certified  by the Ludwig-Maximilians-University of Munich.
