Running trails in Vinschgau/Val Venosta

Very demanding but extremely rewarding trail to the peak of the Stelvio Pass.

The last great waterwaal of the Val Venosta Valley dates back to 1873, using the waters of the Adige River near Goldrain at an altitude of 660 metres and ending after 6 kilometres in Galsaun, municipality of Castelbello.

Breathtaking running track underneath the famous rocks and glaciers of the Ortles Alps.

The little brother of the Lotter Trail. A great warm-up loop for getting to know the area by run.

A short itinerary to acclimatise and discover the mountain village of Sulden, situated at 1,900 m above sea level.

This sporting excursion leads us back into the Medieval Ages and into the past times of the Venosta Valley.

This varied trail and mountain run circles the Montoni, the distinctive local mountain of the hamlet of Agums in Prad.

Short and pleasant loop between Prad and the Prader fishing ponds.

A scenic and beautiful running route in Morter which leaves nothing to be desired. Flat passages changes with moderate increases, to sensational sleep tracks along the "Neuwaal" and the "Rautwaal".

 

Deny the same stage like the runners of the oldest still taking place mountain run San Martino in Monte which yearly in October takes place.

The mountain run to San Martino is a real classic, with regular competitions since 1950, also one of the oldest ones of the whole nightmare space. The wonderful distance, the demanding increase, the perfect one infrastructures - a lot speaks for this mountain run.
The competition distance starts directly on the main square of pasting and leads up to the top terminal of the cable railway. On narrow mountaineering and most different subsoil you procees in your tempo to the wonderful mountain hamlet of San Martino in Monte.

Demanding, with almost 8km a rather long loop through the forests south of Latsch.

Medium-long, moderately difficult round between forest and apple orchards, between valley and Nörderberg, between ascents and flat passages.

A great challenging round over several peaks, but requiring some surefootedness and good weather. From Graun, you first follow the Panorama Trail (R6), turn off after about 3 km, cross the main road, and follow the trail up to the Joggl (Endkopf). Now you continuously follow the ridge over several peaks, up to the 2,909 m high Mittereggspitze, which offers a magnificent view of the Ortler. The route continues along the ridge, mostly downhill and over a last ascent to the summit of the Großhorn. Now you follow the path down the north side, past the Grauner Alm, and back to Graun to the starting point.

This beautiful trail circuit is challenging but definitely worthwhile.

Panoramic and partly very quiet trail to the Rosimböden and the Zay valley.

Short but very interesting itinerary in and around the picturesque and very steep alpine village of Stilfs.

From the bottom of the valley in Prad up towards the glacier to Sulden. The route already belongs to the classic sections of the Transalpine Run.

A classic among the trails in Prad. This track offers some technical sections and a wonderful view of the town and the upper Venosta valley.

A wonderful training route on the south side of the Langtauferer Valley. Due to the orientation, this route, despite its altitude, is often runnable early in the year. From the starting point in Graun, the first kilometer leads somewhat steeper uphill. Soon, however, it becomes flatter, and you follow the trails and forest roads further into the valley. Most of the time, you head towards Melag on a comfortably runnable incline. Short sections also go downhill now and then, inviting you to catch your breath. Further into the valley, a fantastic view of the Weißkugel glaciers opens up. You can then conveniently return to Lake Reschen by bus.

A top-class trail run! After a longer ascent, the high-altitude trail runs permanently along the forest border to Italy and Lake Reschen. From the starting point Parditsch in Nauders, you follow the trail to the inn of the same name and continue to the Labaunalm. Now you branch off to the south and follow the trail to the Labauner Köpfl. The long ascent is now overcome, and you can really enjoy the trails with a great view of Lake Reschen and the surrounding mountains. At the Piengalm, after about 14 km, you can stock up on food and drinks before the high-altitude trail climbs slightly again towards Bergkastel. Now you have almost completed all the altitude meters and continue across the border to Italy to the Plamort rock. The downhill is rewarded with a fantastic view of Lake Reschen. Soon the forest road is reached, along which you run the last kilometer to Reschen.

A panoramic and not too difficult route between the villages of Prad and Tschengls.

A short but promising warm-up loop around the climatic health resort of Sulden am Ortler.

Technically easy and enjoyable itinerary between the mountain huts Stiflser and Prader Alm with breathtaking views of the Ortles Alps glaciers.

A short but challenging route to discover the trails around the hamlet of Agums.

 

A route that has it all: a steep climb, flowing trails with some peaks, great downhills, and always a breathtaking view of Lake Reschen and the Ortler Group! From the Reschen Alm, it's first up to the Outer Nockenkopf. Then you follow the partly unmarked but easy and logical mountain ridge up to Piz Lad. This section definitely gets the trail running heart pumping. Fun trails and a unique view now lead back to the starting point at the Reschen Alm.

A very beautiful, alpine trail running loop with a magnificent view of Lake Reschen and the Ortler Group. The tour is signposted from Haideralm via the Elferspitze to the Schöneben cable car and, due to the moderate distances, is suitable for beginners as well. The ascent to the Elferspitze can be managed with some surefootedness. The route leads across simple block terrain over the Zwölferkopf down to the Schöneben hut. Afterwards, you can take the Schöneben cable car and bus back to the Haideralm valley station. If you want to extend the tour a bit, you can run the dreamy high-altitude trail from the Schöneben mountain station to the Haideralm mountain station. Of course, the tour can also be started from Schöneben

Trail running in a class of its own under the highest mountain in South Tyrol. Very close to the glacier with fantastic views.

In the shadow of the Weißkugel, you head to the Weißkugel Hut and return to Melag via a small section of the Langtauferer High Trail. The first part is rather flat and perfect for warming up. From the Melager Alm, it gradually becomes steeper, and you follow the glacier educational trail towards the Weißkugel Hut – always with the best view of the glaciers of the Weißkugel group. Once you have reached the Weißkugel Hut, you follow the narrow high trail (some surefootedness required) downstream, with no more altitude meters to overcome. Soon you reach the stream coming from the Weißseejoch and first follow a trail, then a forest road back to the small mountain village of Melag.

Beautiful scenic running track at the south of Morter with a great variation over the castle ruins of Montani.
