The Meran High Mountain Trail

This is one of the most beautiful hiking trails in the Alpine region with numerous points of entry. What can you look forward to? Magnificent views as far as Vinschgau and Passeiertal and the Stubai, Sarntal, and Ötztal Alps, the Dolomites, the Brenta Group, and the Ortles/Ortler peak.

The Sopranes/Spronser lakes

In the heart of the Texel Group, at about 2,500 metres above sea level, lie the ten Sopranes/Spronser lakes, the largest high Alpine lake group. The vegetation and wildlife around the group of lakes, together with the beautiful panorama, make this a very special place.

The Via Caines/Kuenser Waalweg trail

The “Waalwege” (old irrigation channels) are hallmarks of the Meran basin and Vinschgau countryside. In addition to their original function, today, they make for perfect hiking trails to discover the beauty of the cultural landscape.

Castel Tirolo/Schloss Tirol castle

The birthplace of the province of Tyrol is always worth a visit. Walk in the footsteps of the counts of Tyrol and marvel at the birds of prey at the rescue centre for birds of the region.
