Apple Trail Through Natz

Highlight • Trail

This is where the apples come from. From the numerous apple orchards on the plateau around Natz. I have to pull myself together to resist the temptation to bite into them. ;-)

July 3, 2025,🇮🇹👣 Der Apfelweg bei Natz-Schabs Sentiero della mele
In the afternoon, we hiked the Apple Trail, which was a bit of a challenge today, given the heat. There are a few sections through the forest, but most of it is shade-free, through vast apple orchards! The trail is well signposted, but we hiked it in the opposite direction.

This was the apple hiking trail around our holiday resort Natz

Start and end at the Flötscherhof. Tour clockwise. Behind Natz, after the Ölberg, take the path to the left and not the easier path to the right. The path is narrower and goes further down into the valley, but is very nice to walk (not suitable for strollers)

Beautiful trail, signposted the other way around. Many sections in blazing sun. Today, it's borderline difficult.

The apple path mainly leads through apple orchards. There are information boards about apple cultivation at irregular intervals. Apart from a few steeper sections, the path is easy to walk and the forest is also pleasantly shady. There are enough benches along the way to take in the beautiful landscape. We liked it😎.

Today we didn't want to go hiking in the high mountains, because that quickly becomes strenuous. But we could easily give this hike, with an ascent of just under 240 meters, the rating "strenuous but beautiful." In a humid 29 degrees, we fought against the numerous mosquitoes and horseflies that lurked near the biotopes. The apple path was always a …

We start today in Naz, and hike 🥾 our tour on the signposted apple path above Vahrn and Neustift. The orchards of the region seem almost endless to us, apple trees groan under the weight of fruit.
Everywhere harvest workers are picking all sorts of fruit.
For a change, we visit different biotopes that we have already noted in advance; …

Nice exploration tour around Natz-Sciaves. The path is very varied and leads partly through town, over apple fields, through forest, past ponds, sometimes wide, sometimes narrow, sometimes rocky, sometimes forest floor and sometimes paved. On the way back, just before Natz-Sciaves, you should definitely visit and enjoy the viewing point with the wave loungers on the Ölberg above the barbecue …
