A wonderful, easy hiking trail along the Waal, also a recommendation with children. There are places to rest along the way and there is always information about the Waal and about legends. There are always great views of the Vinschgau.

August 6, 2021,Kleine Tour Schluderns

A wonderful little tour, also beautiful from the route dramaturgy. First it goes uphill, then you will be well rewarded with the whales and the wonderful nature. Then the departure to Schluderns, where you can think about where you want to stop while looking at the village.

Finally, today I went on the Waalweg near Schlundern in Düd Tirol, which was so highly recommended to me🤩🥰 and is supposed to be one of the most beautiful.🥰 What can I say...😍 Everything was done right. 🤩When you're at the top of the mountain, you can hear either the Waal or the waterfall at any time, or both at …

June 15, 2024,Churburg und Waalwege

A rainy day with low-hanging clouds in Schluderns, South Tyrol. We decided to first visit the Churburg, which sits on a hill above the town. It was first mentioned in documents in 1259. In the years that followed, there were repeated feuds between the Lords of Matsch and the Bishops of Chur. In 1537, after a long inheritance dispute, the …

At our new accommodation we started high above the Burgschänke, which is closed today to the Churburg. It's also closed today, but filming is going on there today and unfortunately they …

August 2, 2022,Vinschgau Quickie | Schludernser Waalwege 😍

Today a small wonderful Waalweg excursion. A perfect activity on a hot August day.

Shortly after Schluderns there are instructive explanations and an old Waalerhütte. We climb up to the Ganglegg Bronze Age excavation, where the approximately 3 km long Leitenwaal begins with a very gentle incline, it ripples and gurgles and smells of pine forest. On the way you …

July 5, 2022,Berkwaal und Leitenwaal von Schluderns/Churburg aus

Today we hiked in Schluderns at the Berkwaal and at the Leitenwaal. Thanks to Rainer and Petra for the tip. I thought the Marlinger Waal and the Stabener or Schnalser Waalweg were the most beautiful irrigation channels here, but these are even more interesting! The Berkwaal in particular is really wild 😍 The only stupid thing was the irrigation sprinklers …

For those interested in archaeology, the prehistoric excavation site at Ganglegg is an absolute highlight.
This is a hilltop settlement on a moraine debris cone formed during the Ice Age.
The sensational finds from the Bronze, Iron and Roman Age are on display in the "Vinschger Museum". This museum also offers insight into the history of the origins of the …
