Whether breathless beginner or well-trained mountain athlete: In the Tannheimer Tal everyone gets their money's worth who wants to move in the fresh air and explore the surrounding mountains on foot. All active people, from hobby athletes to professionals, have the daily dilemma of 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 that all guests know which path suits their fitness and demands, a specially developed 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, by sparkling mountain lakes... Walking and running in the Tannheimer Tal is not just the best training for the body but above all balm for the soul. The starting points for all movement seekers are in the six villages Tannheim, Grän-Haldensee, Nesselwängle-Haller, Zöblen, Schattwald and Jungholz. From here walkers, Nordic walkers and runners follow the signposts. They are easy to recognize: figures with poles. Additionally, all routes as well as ski slopes are classified into black, red and blue categories. An optimal marking which, among other things, has contributed to the fact that this probably most beautiful high valley in Europe has officially been called "Running and Walking Competence Center" since 2005.
