Between the Ortler mountain and the Ötztal Alps
South Tyrol’s Vinschgau valley is a hidden gem for mountaineers – wild, rugged, and rich in contrasts. Between the
Ortler massif and the
Ötztal Alps, a world of high-altitude adventure awaits: glaciers, steep ridges, and breathtaking alpine panoramas.
Sulden/Solda – the birthplace of South Tyrolean alpinism
At the foot of the Ortler lies Sulden in the
Stelvio National Park, a historic hub for alpinists. From here, ambitious climbers set out to conquer the famous
Ortler,
Königsspitze, and
Zebru mountains. Along the way, you’ll encounter not only stunning scenery but also historical remains from World War I.
Schnalstal valley & Martelltal valley – remote beauty and alpine challenge
The untouched Schnalstal and Martelltal valleys also offer diverse routes through spectacular landscapes, with alpine huts providing
shelters and hearty South Tyrolean cuisine.
No matter your goal – summit, solitude or nature – Vinschgau valley offers the ultimate alpine experience.
