From the Völser Weiher Lake, go to the Huber Weiher Lake, where a steep trail forks off towards the Tuff Alm hut. Below the Tuff, follow the signposts to “Schlern, Hoferalpl” (no. 1). A wide walking path leads below the face of the Schlern and over the Völser Bach stream to the freight cable car valley station. Turn left and follow trail 1 up to the entrance of the Schlernschlucht gorge and the “Peter Frag” rest stop. Now take a left onto the Schäufelesteig trail (no. 3), which winds up to the Schlern plateau in a series of steep bends.

From the Refuge Schlernhaus mountain hut, trail no. 1 leads down to the Sesselschwaige mountain hut. Follow the “corduroy” tree-trunk trail, also known as the Prügelweg, into the Schlern gully, down to the Peter Frag roadside cross and back to the Völser Weiher lake along the same route.

The starting point for the tour is the church in Ums. Then head in the direction “Hofer Alpl, Tuff Alm”, around a few bends on the way, until a path towards “Hofer Alpl, Schlern” begins on the right (trail no. 3). The path to the Hofer Alpl is now fairly steep, leading you uphill through the forest. From the Hofer Alpl, the trail first leads along a forest road, then a footpath and on to the Tuff Alm hut. The path merges into a wide path uphill to the Schlern (trail no. 1). The route crosses the Völser Bach stream and leads on over vast Alpine meadows to the Tuff Alm. Before you get to the hut, a stony trail forks off to the left to the Völser Weiher lake. It winds through the wood and meets with the gravelly road leading to the Tuff Alm hut. After the Huber Weiher lake, turn left onto a walking trail towards Ums (trail no. 2). The path leads down through a woody valley and streams and then over open meadows back to Ums.

Stage 1: The tour begins at the Brunnenplatz in Tiers am Rosengarten and leads past the St. Sebastian chapel and the Wuhnleger and up to the Tschafonhütte, the first stop of the tour. From the hut, a short climb will take you to the Völseggspitze with its breathtaking views.

Stage 2: From the Rifugio Monte Cavone, the terrain is flat to begin with and then leads in uphill bends towards the Hammerwand. The trail around the Hammerwand calls for a sure foot and a good head for heights. Proceed onwards to the grassy Tschafatschsattel and up to the Refuge Schlernhaus mountain hut. From the Refuge Schlernhaus, the tour leads you to the Schlern plateau and on to the Refuge Tierser Alpl mountain hut, the destination of the second stage.

Stage 3: The third stage of this hut tour leads out from the Tierser Alpl mountain hut over the spectacular Bärenloch gully, through the Tschamintal Valley and down to St. Zyprian.

From the Nigerpass, trail no. 7 leads along a forest path to Baumannschwaige hut. Shortly before turn off right, after a few steep hairpin bends, a path leads to a high mountain pasture and, always close to the tree line, with a beautiful view over Rosengarten, Latemar and Ortler massif to the Haniger Schwaige. From here you can go back the same way or descend to St. Zyprian Tiers.

This hiking tour starts on the parking lot cable car Nova Levante. From here along the Via Catinaccio until the hotel Rechenmachers. Than take the path “Nigertalweg/Valle Nigra” until the Nigerpass/Passo Nigra (1,688m). Accross the path [1] you reach the Messner Joch hut (1930m) with an amazing view to the Dolomites mountains Latemar, Corno Bianco and Corno Nero. To start back to Nova Levante you can take the same way or walk by path [1B] and [15] until the village.

The Aica di Fiè farm trail begins at Prösels Castel. Follow the signposts for “Oachner Höfeweg”, going past a few wine cellars (“Wirtskeller”) and through the wood up to the Flungerhof farm. Through mixed and chestnut woods, the trail leads high above the Eisack Valley and on to the farms of Tommele and Gmoaner. Passing by the Prackfolerhof farm and the Gstatschhof, the walk takes you through meadows and mountain vineyards to the Innerperskoler and the Zoarhof farm, where our path meets with the road and leads up to the Fronthof und Finger Hof farms. Now we head into the head down into the depths and the Lausbach stream, over a little suspension bridge and, on the other side, up again to the Tiers road. The way back leads past the Schnaggenkreuz cross, a good vantage point for views over Völs and the Schlern massif. Trail no. 5 leads back to Prösels.
