Description:
Experience the Running and Nordic Walking Arena Tannheimer Tal 

Whether breathless beginner or well-trained mountain athlete: everyone who enjoys fresh air and exploring the surrounding mountains on foot will find something for themselves in the Tannheimer Tal. Every active person, from hobby athlete to professional, faces a daily challenge: Tyrol's largest network of paths offers 26 marked routes covering a total of 186 kilometers. There are beginner loops as well as demanding mountain runs. And so that all guests know which path suits their fitness and requirements, a specially designed map and small boards provide information about altitude profile, difficulty level, and route length – the running and Nordic walking map.


Along meadows, over green alpine pastures, past sparkling mountain lakes... Walking and running in the Tannheimer Tal is not only the best training for the body, but above all balm for the soul. The starting points for all those eager to move are located in the six villages of Tannheim, Grän-Haldensee, Nesselwängle-Haller, Zöblen, Schattwald, and Jungholz. From here, walkers, Nordic walkers, and runners follow the signposts. They are easy to recognize: little figures with sticks. Additionally, all routes, just like ski slopes, are classified into the categories black, red, and blue. An optimal classification that, among other things, contributed to the fact that probably the most beautiful high valley in Europe has officially called itself the "Running and Walking Competence Center" since 2005.
