The Meraner Höhenweg is a 100-kilometer circular route through South Tyrol’s Texelgruppe Nature Park, showcasing diverse landscapes such as forests, vineyards, and alpine terrain. You can hike the full trail or explore sections, staying in mountain huts and local hotels for an authentic Tyrolean experience.

The northern half is the toughest, with its highest point reaching 2,895 meters at the Eisjöchl pass. It features steep climbs, rocky paths, and exposed ridges, leading you through high-altitude meadows and rugged alpine terrain. Ideal for experienced hikers, this section rewards you with panoramic views of the Ötztal Alps. Accommodation in Merano before and after the trek is included, making for a convenient and comfortable start and finish.
