Hiking & biking in the Val Martello

HIKING IN the VAL MARTELLO

For those who like to go on foot to experience nature at its purest, the Val Martello is definitely the right place. The valley is characterised by its diverse hiking trails, ranging from themed trails and alpine tours for families to high alpine summit tours for experienced mountaineers.

Hiking in the Val Martello means exploring the landscape and getting to know its people. This is how our themed trails combine the experience of nature and knowledge about the land and its people. On the approximately 8-kilometre-long Strawberry Trail, which leads along strawberry fields, you can learn interesting facts about the strawberries of the Val Martello at several information stations. The Mountain Farmer Trail, which runs through the district of Waldberg, also conveys information. Here you can gain insights into the life of the local people of the past and of today.

The Plima Gorge is another hiking highlight in our valley. The various viewpoints, the "trowel", the "panoramic crescent" and the "observation pulpit" as well as the suspension bridge, allow visitors to encounter the gorge each time in a different special way.

The Alpine Pasture Tour, which opened in summer 2020, is also located at the head of the valley. In addition, the glacier nature trail provides interesting information about the high mountains while hiking.

However, those who like to climb high peaks during their holiday in Val Martello find interesting high alpine summit tours throughout the entire valley. Lyfi Peak, Gioveretto Peak or Punta di Lasa are just a few mountain peaks worth mentioning. On the website of the tourist office, you can find more high alpine summit tours in the valley, but also in the entire holiday region Laces-Martello in the Venosta Valley.
