Merano High Mountain Trail / Alta Via di Merano

Highlight • Trail

Apparently the Meraner Höhenweg was relocated here in 2 places. Since it's over slabs of rock there, I think it has to do with water when it rains. On the new path, there are always water barriers

Oberkaseralm

Highlight • Mountain Hut

The Oberkaseralm invites you to take a break before continuing to the lakes. These are spectacular and worth a visit. Definitely worth the effort.

View of Algund

Highlight • Viewpoint

The combination of rugged cliffs, great lakes and unique forest are worth the effort! Be sure to start at 8:30 a.m., otherwise it will get hectic because the last basket lift goes at 5:00 p.m.

Parking just before Leiter mountain hut. Steep and exposed EE trail both uphill and downhill.

So that was somehow the king's stage today...
After a very steep and long climb that I couldn't have done without the drive from @JMT, it went along with always beautiful views.
It was a long, exhausting hike, but finally ticked off another to-do 😊
Ascent from Algund with the 1-seater chair lift and then with the basket lift.

A wonderful tour through all the lakes of the Sponser Lake District. Even the ride up with the basket lift to the starting point of the round is an experience. Very good basic fitness is required. To pass the Hochgangscharte, sure-footedness is required and a head for heights is useful😉.

A dream tour in South Tyrol! 🌄 Starting with the cable car to the Leiter Alm, it was straight into the adventure: dense forest, rocky trails, a suspension bridge, and breathtaking views of the Etschtal Valley.

The climb was strenuous, but by the time we reached the Spronser Lakes, it was clear: every step was worth it! 💧🐟 Clear mountain …

We started by bus to Vellau and from there by single-seater chairlift and then the basket lift up to Leiteralm 😊 It was quite an experience to ride with these two somewhat old-fashioned companions 😄
Then the tour began... from Leiteralm onto the Merano High Trail and followed it to the Hochganghaus. A pleasant path, gently up and down, through …

The most beautiful high alpine mountain lakes in South Tyrol are located on a high plateau behind the so-called Texel group, high above Merano/Lagundo, between 2,100 and 2,600 m above sea level. Because of this altitude, there is often still snow on its banks in summer. The 10 Sprons supply a large part of the city of Merano and the …
