Description
<p>Located in the heart of the Alps, with vineyards, orchards and chestnut forests in the valleys and the rocky backdrop of the three-thousand-metre region above - given this fantastic landscape, it may come as little surprise that the Venosta Valley is one of the most popular hiking regions in South Tyrol. What is astonishing, however, is how lonely you can be in this mountain world. The Rother hiking guide "Vinschgau" presents 50 wonderful hikes ranging from easy to challenging.<br style=""><br style="">Comfy Waalweg trails lead through the sunlit Vinschgau valleys. Further up, hut hikes with hearty snacks and panoramic high-altitude trails allow you to experience the beauty of the mountains. There is also a selection of more challenging summit tours that lead up to the region of the three thousand meter peaks. With a total of 50 varied half-day and day hikes, this Rother hiking guide leads into the Upper Adige Valley and its Vinschgau side valleys, between the Resia Pass, Stelvio Pass, Naturno and into the Martello and Val Senales valleys. The region is dominated by the 3,908-metre-high, ice-armoured Ortler, which can be admired on many a tour.<br style=""><br style="">The suggested routes are presented with precise route descriptions, informative altitude profiles, map sections with route descriptions and color photos. This Rother hiking guide also contains a wealth of information on sights, natural beauty and excursion destinations in the region. GPS data is available for download.<br style=""><br style="">For the 10th edition, the Rother Vinschgau hiking guide has been carefully updated.<br></p>
