At the end of this nature trail, turn right onto the so-called Kuchlweg trail, hiking to the vineyards on the western side of the valley.

“Good wine begins in the vineyard” – an oft-quoted maxim whose truth is unchallenged.

Why this is so and what happens in the vineyard is clearly described along the Castel Sallegg wine trail in Caldaro. Panels located in the midst of the vine rows explain all about Alto Adige’s grape varieties and their characteristics, relate the annual vegetation cycle of the vines and tell the history of winegrowing. Those wishing to learn more will find plenty of information about the local climate, geography and terroir. To round off the trail, visitors can visit the cellar and enjoy a wine-tasting session, thus completing the path from the vine via the barrel and into the bottle.

The starting point of the trail, which is some 350 metres long, is the Rottenburger Platz in the centre of Caldaro. From there it leads up through the vineyard to the inner courtyard of Castel Sallegg. Visitors can follow the trail alone or take part in an individual or a group guided tour: either way you can be sure of acquiring an informative insight into the traditional viticulture of Alto Adige.

Route: Rottenburger Platz (centre of Caldaro) to Castel Sallegg (30 minutes on foot).
Opening times: mid-March to mid-November (guided tours only during the ripening season).
Price: unaccompanied visits are free of charge: guided tours are €9.50 or €16.00 including cellar tour and wine tasting.
Guided tours: from 1 April to the end of October, followed by cellar visit (except during harvest time) and wine tasting. Guided tours followed by wine tasting can be organized for small and big groups.

You start your hike at the church in the center of Terlan. Via the Silberleitenweg you get to Oberkreuth, where you turn right at the fountain, walk 20 m further and then take the Vorbergweg/no°4A to the left up to the Tschirglhöfe. The first path is very steep. Further up the mountain you hike past "Mugger/Zilli" and "Bergrast". You will reach the Möltner road (please pay attention to the traffic), walk downwards for approx. 150 m and turn right onto hiking trail n°4. Where the hiking trail meets the road again, you walk downwards (attention to traffic) for a short while until you turn onto the hiking trail again. After the first 20 m descent, a detour to the left to the "Wetterkreuz" is worthwhile. It is a magnificent viewpoint with the ruins of the 14th-century St.Peter miners' chapel below. The path now leads steeply down to the "Klaus in der Mühl" farm and then leads into Kirchgasse, through which you return to the starting point.

There is no rest stop on this hike.

Varied and easy Trail throw the vineyards till Caldaro lake. Suitable for the whole family. (only one way 5,4km)

The promenade route was built along the tracks of the former Überetsch railway and is therefore also known as the old railway embankment path. In several places there are benches and playgrounds, which invite you to linger for a while and let off steam.

The Wine Trail is layed out in the form of an "8" and takes you from the village centre, down to the lake and back – past wine vineyards, farms and estates. Ground markings have been laid into the ground so that the hiker is aware of the various vineyard names as he passes by. You will see some of the age-old poetic vineyard names, which date back to either Rhaetian or Romantic origins: "Vial", "Prunar", "Puntara", "Palurisch" …

The hike begins at the Altenburg Church above Kaltern. From there, a narrow but well-maintained forest path with a gentle incline leads first to a viewpoint offering a magnificent view over the Adige Valley. The trail is varied and winds through shady mixed forest – a head for heights is recommended in some sections.

At the viewpoint, turn left onto the St. Peter Trail and follow trail marker No. 2. The path descends in switchbacks through a small gorge. Before long, you'll reach the ruins of the three-nave church of St. Peter, an important relic of early Christian architecture. It is considered possibly the oldest church in Tyrol and is said to have been founded in the 6th century by Saint Vigilius of Trento. The remaining wall paintings by Thomas Egnolt from around 1400 are only fragmentary, but still worth a brief stop.

From the ruins, the trail continues to the suspension bridge – an exciting section of the tour with a fantastic view into the gorge. The path then climbs gently to a small hill. Soon you’ll reach the Rastenbach Gorge, where a turnoff leads into the gorge and the trail continues uphill. Good footwear is essential here, as the walkways can be damp and slippery in places.

At the upper end of the gorge, you reach the Müllereck, cross the road, and follow the trail on the left back toward Altenburg. The path winds leisurely through meadows and forest, returning to the Altenburg Church – the starting point of this circular hike.

Medium-easy exkursion across beautiful deciduous forests. The view to Bolzano and Sciliar is beautiful along the path.

Easy walking path through vineyards and forest. Starting point: piazza Rottenburg/Rottenburger Platz. Final point: ice caves. Duration of walking: about 2 hours. Difference of altitude: about 130 meters.

Impressive trail from Lake Caldaro to both of the Monticolo lakes and back. The excursion cuts across the varied terrain and requires, due to the considerable length, a good physical condition. Not pram-friendly.

This beautiful hiking tour leads from Aldino to the place of pilgrimage "Maria Weissenstein/ Pietralba". We go past spectacular viewpoints and the mountain huts "Schmieder Alm" and "Schönrast Alm".

This segment leads from the famed Pinot Noir village of Montan, situated at an elevation of 500 meters above sea-level, to Gfrill at more than 1,300 meters above sea-level. Proceed via the railroad line of the former Fleims Valley railroad until you come to the Glen Waterfall. From there, the trail is uphill via the hamlet of Gsteig (rest-stop, food/drink, and overnight lodgings) towards Gschnon, where there are additional lodging options. You will then take the last part of the route from the Kalkofen parking lot along forest paths and over the Gfrill Saddle until you arrive in Gfrill, the final destination of this segment.

Helpful hint for this route: Take the little side-trip from Gsteig to the impressive "Kanzel" looming high above the Unterland. You'll be rewarded with a fantastic view!
