Hiking holidays Reschensee - Lake Kaltern

First along Lake Resia reservoir and over to Graun, where you will find the best known camera motive of the Vinschgau, the flooded spire of Graun. The route runs past Lake San Valentino and along the largest alluvial fan of the Alps and leads up to the idyllic mountain village Planeil. Downhill you walk through forest and later through flowering meadows to Burgusio, with view to the impressive monastery of Marienberg.

Walk along the Sonnensteig path, a newly created theme path with fantastic views of the snowy mountain peaks. High above the town Mals, with its many towers, onwards and over the Tartscher Bichl past ‚Ganglegg’, a historic archaeological site from the Bronze and Iron Age on to Sluderno, with the most impressive and best-preserved castles in South Tyrol.

From the foot of Sonnberg your walk starts and continues crossing through dense forests. Above Laas, well known for the white marble, you later reach the orchards of Vinschgau – apple trees as far as the eyes can see.

Today you pass through the orchard of the Vinschgau. Along the Latschander Waal path you walk through regions of the best South Tyrolean wines. Continue on the archaeological path which almost takes you to Messners castle ‘Juval’, high above the valley. On a meandering trail downhill you reach Naturno.

High up you continue following the Rablander Waal path through forests, past Alpine mountain farms forever accompanied by stunning views of the Vinschgau valley. Follow Partschinser and Algunder Waal path down into the Meraner basin. Tired muscles get a chance to relax in the thermal spa.

Along the Marlinger Waalweg, the longest irrigation channel trail in South Tyrol, to the “apple metropolis” of Lana. On the way, you can enjoy wonderful views of Merano and the Adige Valley as far as Bolzano. Through deciduous forests, you hike up to Tisens, known for its fine chestnuts. In the second part of the stage begins a castle-rich area, and Nals awaits with Stachelburg, Schwanburg and Payrsberg castles.

Walk past castles, raised stands and fortresses with great views of the Etschtal Valley and the surrounding mountain ranges. A section of the path takes you along the ‘Three-Fortress-Route’ and continue via St. Michael through extensive vineyards until you reach the beautiful Lake Caldaro. In this beautiful valley you should taste a glass of "Kalterer See".
