Pěší turistika v Jižním Tyrolsku

St. Johann/San Giovanni - Faden - Obersteiner Holm - Niederhofer Alm - St. Johann/San Giovanni

A nice path leads us to the ‘‘Stöckl’’ at Faden, a viewpoint within a basically untouched high alpine landscape with a wide variety of vegetation. This region is also a hideaway for rich fauna; in particular the hiker can enjoy observing the wide variety of bird species. The massive mountain chain of the Zillertal Alps lies directly in front of us and allows an insight into the various forms of erosion at work in the high mountains. A special panaromic view can also be found at the “Obersteiner Holm”: Durrecker Group, Rieserferner: The lower end of the Ahrntal valley provides a window to the distant Dolomites.

The Sesto ski touring trail teaches you everything you need to know for safe ski touring during a tour lasting just under two hours. The ski touring trail combines basic theoretical knowledge, for example about the correct behaviour in the event of an avalanche, with an almost six-kilometre tour on which around 540 metres in altitude have to be conquered. The ski touring trail, which is equipped with information boards, starts behind the Zin Fux restaurant and leads between trees and across meadows to the Rotwand. From there to the mountain station, the uphill kick turn is practised in open terrain before returning to the valley via the ski slope.

Round-trip tour from the Sam to the Griesbach valley… The Sam cabins are truly picturesque, and from there you can marvel at the panorama of the entire Ahrntal valley, from the mighty High Tauern mountains to Luttach/Lutago at the beginning of the valley. In comparison to other hiking areas, this territory is not overrun with people and even during the high season you can enjoy a hike in silence and solitude. The round-trip walk to the Sam cabins and to the Griesbach valley can be done without using your car, you can use the public bus transport instead.

Kasern/Casere - Hochwieser Alm - Biotope Wieser Werfa - Waldner See/lake - Kasern/Casere

We move through an area of small streams, mountain rivers and moraines („Wieser Werfa” und “Wieser Moos”) and mountain lakes (Waldner See). At the same time we enjoy panoramic views of the glaciated world of the „Hohe Tauern” mountains as well as the dark peaks of the “Durreck Group“, a core landscape of the Nature Park “Rieserferner-Ahrn”. Historical pathways across the „Hundskehle” tell of former close contacts with the neighbouring people in “Zillertal” valley.

Trail no. 2 towards the Ebenhof farm until you reach the rocket play park

The hiking circuit around the Kummersee near Rabenstein/Corvara is easily negotiated and highly worthwhile. Enshrouded in legend, the lake in the Upper Passeiertal Valley combines the splendour of the terrain with the enjoyment of hiking and an appreciation of history. In the summer months, it takes only 2.5 hours to circumvent this former lake basin situated at an altitude of 1,340 m, with an elevation gain of 350 m. Sturdy footwear and thermal, weatherproof clothing is a necessity. Be sure to always stay updated on the current weather and forecast, as well as snow conditions. The eight didactic stations along the lake route help to illustrate the story and peculiarities of these waters and surrounding territory.

Tip: Free folder "Kummersee-Rundweg" in the information offices of the valley available.

An enjoyable round-trip walk on the Hollenzberg… The journey itself is the reward on this tour plus the many highlights. Once you have mastered the steep ascent to the Hühnerspielhütten, a wonderful clearing opens in front of you, with the picturesque Hühnerspiel huts embedded in the alpine pasture. From there you can enjoy the view reaching from the Dreiherrenspitze to the mountain ridge on the orographic lefthand side of the valley. The Wollbach valley has maintained its unique character of a high alpine pasture and the whole valley is covered in pink during the blooming of the alpine roses. Walking along the vivid glacial waters of the Wollbach, we arrive at the alpine hut bearing the same name and back to the starting point.

Steinhaus/Cadipietra - Schwaiger farms - Moser Ebene - Hochfeld - Bärental - Hochfeldalm - Schwaiger farms

Beginning the walk in the cultivated land in the valley, we cross into typical high alpine larch forests. The forest is of great importance since it protects the valley from avalanches and falling rocks - but it can only fulfill this role if the flora and fauna are kept in a harmonious relationship. Above the woods, we find alpine cabins - witnesses of past labours. Over the years, farmers have shaped the landscape and kept it balanced.

By the Rosskpof mountain station following on the right trail no. 19 until the weather cross. Following the signs to the road and along the road to the little chapel. Take here the trail on the right and follow the serpentines to Vipiteno.
