The 2-Täler-Trail is a varied long-distance hiking route that leads from the Defereggen Valley in East Tyrol via Staller Saddle into the Antholz Valley, ending in Niederrasen. Covering around 90 kilometres in six daily stages, hikers experience an impressive diversity of landscapes and views.
The trail intentionally runs between the valley floor and the high mountains– neither a demanding high-alpine route nor a simple valley hike. Instead, it follows a mid-altitude line, offering ideal conditions for multi-day hikes with continuous panoramic views.
Along the route, you will enjoy unique views of the villages in the valleys as well as the surrounding mountain groups such as the Lasörling range, the Villgraten mountains and the Rieserferner group with its impressive 3,000-metre peaks.
The trail can be described as a “balcony of the Alps”, with constant long-distance views and a particularly varied landscape. At the end of each stage, you reach a village with various accommodation options.
The 2-Täler-Trail consists of 6 stages from Defereggen Valley (Hopfgarten) via Staller Saddle to Antholz Valley (Niederrasen). The route runs at mid-altitude with continuous panoramic views.

The trail leads through alpine pastures, forest lines and scenic high-altitude paths. Each stage ends in a village with accommodation options.
Sturdy hiking shoes, weather-appropriate clothing, and sufficient water and provisions are essential. For a multi-day tour, it is also recommended to carry a light backpack with a change of clothes and personal equipment.
Both locations can be easily reached by public transport. From the train stations Olang-Antholz and Lienz, regular bus services run to Niederrasen (Antholz Valley) and Hopfgarten (Defereggen Valley).
For the starting point, travel to Hopfgarten in Defereggen in the Defereggen Valley.
From South Tyrol, the destination Niederrasen in the Antholz Valley can be reached via the Pustertal road.
