Pěší túry po jihotyrolská vinařská stezka

On this segment, you will proceed first from Gfrill to the bogland lakes of the "Weiss" and the "Schwarz." From there, the route continues to the Horn-Alm, the highest point of the segment. Hikers can stop here for refreshments and then continue downhill via the Ziss Saddle – not far from there, you can admire the stunning "huckete Stoan," a free-standing erratic boulder made of porphyry the size of a house – until you come to Altrei.

From the main square the roout starts on a paed road, then to the right on a path leading to „Wies“. At the fence, the path turns to the right - first route H, then route 2 - and proceeds steeply upward on a forest path to the Hirschbettweiher (840 m). On the same path marked 2 we descend to a fork in the path where we go straight ahead. When the path meets the paved Kauderleweg we go to the right, where, after about a 20 inute walk, we reach the Gasthaus An der Himmelspfort inn and continue to the right back to the main square.

From the main square of Penon the path follows the the trail marked nr. 7. This path follows the road - at the fork, stay left, along the forest road, then over the hiking path to Fennhals (1031 m). At the Di Pauli residence with its small church, we proceed downward over the Römerweg – marked 2 – back to Penon (605 m).

With this excursion you reach the Pochi di Salorno sculpture garden. This “garden of desires” brings together the works of sculptor Tatz-Borgogno in a small deciduous wood. "Freedom and harmony amongst art and nature" is the motto that the artist has used to accompany the creation and installation of more than 200 sculptures in bronze and marble in the garden.

This walk leads from Kurtatsch on the hill to the valley floor. From the main square of Cortaccia, we proceed down the Kirchgasse, past the church and cross the Strada del Vino. There the hiking path begins, going down steps following the Milla stream to the bottom of the valley. At the end of the stairs, the path continues through the vineyards for about 100 meters, and then turns to the left through the orchards on a small road. We turn left upon reaching the paved road and reach the “Katzenleiter”, another set of stairs leading again up the cliff to the Strada del Vino. The path continues to the left until we cross the road at a roadside shrine, taking the Botengasse street past the lovely cemetery to the main square again.

From the main Square of Kurtatsch, the route starts up the short steep Obergasse to the little square where we turn to the right. At the next fountain the route follows Schiessstandweg for about 50 meters until the forest path marked 5a branches off. This leads into Lochweg (marking 5), which takes us to Graun. In Graun there are several places to eat and drink something before continuing back over the old Grauner Weg which turns right after the Goldener Adler Inn and just before the St. George's church. This road leads to the "new" Grauner Weg near "Kehr". Tip: Just past the St. George's church there is a wonderful view of the southern Adige valley from the "Sitzkofel"!

The walk takes in the idyllic village of Mazzon, amongst the vines and unspoilt natural landscape of the Monte Corno Natural Park. Mazzon is known for its excellent Pinot Noir, which thrives on the sunny slopes, and in fact wine connoisseurs know this small village as "Pinot Noir heaven". But those who know Mazzon already know that this village isn’t just famous for its excellent wine ...

From the parking lot at the Weinstraße the route proceeds into the village center, across St. Gertraud's square and into the narrow Franz-von-Fenner-Straße, following the marking number 3. The road starts steeply up through vineyards to the marking 3a towards Entiklar.  After about 100 meters towards Entiklar, the 3B path to Penon branches off to the left. Once the first houses of Hinterpenon (605m) are reached, a paved road heads north until a fork in the road (to the right, a roadside shrine). Stay to the right - also at the next fork - to descend to Entiklar (256 m) - marking 7. Upon reaching the first houses in Entiklar, the path 3A takes off to the left toward Margreid (226 m).

The Castelfeder hill is an ancient cultural landscape with settlement remains dating back to the Stone Age and Bronze Age. The remains of the castle complex, the legendary “slide of fertility” and the Santa Barbara chapel walls are testament to its mystical past. The area is of particular importance not only from an archaeological and historical perspective but also from an ecological point of view as for years it has enjoyed the status of being a protected natural habitat (biotope).

The Corno di Tres offers a wonderful view over the Bassa Atesina holiday region and the remaining Adige valley. The tour begins on the Favogna road, right about 3 km after Fennhals along trail 3, Corno di Tres. For a round trip, a climb over the saddle (marking 7, Fennhals) is also possible (11km, 865hm, 4h40m). Once on top, pass the Rätersteig (always sign no. 3) on the right to Fenner Joch (1563 m). From there on, the somewhat steep Barbara path to the summit. In the same way back to Favogna.

This walk in the Monte Corno Natural Park provides you with the opportunity to admire unique landscapes and impressive mountain scenery. On a clear sunny day, you can make out the Palla Bianca, the Pennes Pass, the Mendola range of mountains and the Brenta Group.

On this segment, you will proceed from Aldein uphill to Montan. At first, you can proceed along a relatively relaxing trail until you reach Holen. From there, it gets steeper until you reach the Aldein Bridge (known as the "Little European Bridge" when first built in the 1960s). This is a good opportunity to make a rest-stop and/or get some refreshments. You then continue along the former route of the Fleims Valley railroad, through spruce forests (common here on the southwest flank of the Cislon). Just before arriving at Montan, you'll pass by the Elsenhof farmstead and the impressive Enn Castle. Then, continue via the "Wine Forest Water" Trail to the center of the village of Montan, famed for its Pinot Noir, at an elevation of 500 meters above sea-level. This is the end of the route.

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".

On a dizzyingly high outcrop of dolomite rise the medieval ruins of Salorno’s castle - Haderburg. It was built in the first half of the thirteenth century and is one of the most important monuments in South Tyrol. The castle with its winery is open to the public from Easter until All Saints. Each year Salorno-Haderburg Castle hosts musical, literary and folk events.

The road starts from the centre of Aldein next to the Church. We follow the instructions of the road nr. 10 and after 1 1/2 we reach the main street, which has to be crossed. The instructions show the way to farms and meadows. Soon we reach the first station of the cross, this one as well as the others are made by the Schützenkompanie Aldein. At the "Bacherhof" farm starts the "Long way", called by the inhabitants of Aldein, which goes into the woods with a slight raising. Walking from one station of the cross to the next we reach the "Woller"-shed in the middle of alp meadows with beautiful flowers. The forest road (Nr. 2-8-10) leads us to the largest place of pilgrimage of South Tyrol: Maria Weißenstein. Behind the Curch we find the restaurant and the bus parking place, where a bus drives to the Centre of Aldein too.

From the main square of Kurtatsch we take the Obergasse, a street that starts steeply up to the small square, where we turn right. At the next intersection - near the fountain - we follow the Schiessstandweg, which continues as a narrow street through the woods (Trimm-Dich-Pfad). This road takes us past Kastelaz to the southern limits of Tramin. We return to Kurtatsch over the street to Rungg, to the right just before the Elena Walch winery.

This leisurely stroll follows a country road through the vineyards to Tramin. At the halfway mark, in the tiny hamlet of Rungg, there is a farmer's inn offering drinks and snacks where you can rest (closed Wednsedays). After a visit to Tramin, we follow the same road back to Kurtatsch.

Our alpine hut is located at 1,750 m, surrounded by large alpine meadows and in the immediate vicinity of a beautiful pond. The view of the surrounding mountains, Latemar, Catinaccio, Sciliar, Corno Nero and Corno Bianco invites you to simply let your soul dangle. We will coddle you with local delicacies and seasonal specialties.
