Waalwege canal trails in Vinschgau/Val Venosta

Due to scarce rainfall, farmers in Vinschgau had to come up with creative ideas.  That’s why they built the so-called "Waale", irrigation canals that transported water to pastures and fields. Today, the fascinating narrow trails that meander through forests, orchards, past castles, forts and chapels, are popular hiking destinations – surprisingly, the irrigation canals on the Malser Haide in the Obervinschgau valley have also been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Above all in spring and autumn, you should walk through this Mediterranean-like landscape and listen to the healing sound of water.
