Description:
Experience the Running and Nordic Walking Arena Tannheimer Tal

Whether breathless beginner or well-trained mountain athlete: In the Tannheimer Tal, everyone who wants to move in the fresh air and explore the surrounding mountains on foot will find their match. All active people, from hobby athletes to professionals, face a daily choice: The largest network of paths in Tyrol offers 26 marked routes extending over a total of 186 kilometers. There are beginner loops as well as challenging mountain runs. And so all guests know which path corresponds to their condition and requirements, a specially developed map and small boards provide information about elevation profile, difficulty level, and length of the route - the running and Nordic walking map.


Along meadows, over green alpine pastures, by sparkling mountain lakes... Walking and running in the Tannheimer Tal is not only the best training for the body but above all a 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 poles. In addition, all routes, like ski slopes, are classified into black, red, and blue categories. An optimal marking that has contributed, among other things, to the fact that probably the most beautiful high valley in Europe has officially been called the "Running and Walking Competence Center" since 2005.
