Description:
Experience the Running and Nordic Walking Arena Tannheimer Tal

Whether breathless beginner or well-trained mountain athlete: In the Tannheimer Tal, everyone gets their money’s worth who wants to be active in the fresh air and explore the surrounding mountains on foot. Every day, all active people, from hobby athletes to professionals, face a tough choice: the largest network of trails in Tyrol offers 26 marked routes, covering a total of 186 kilometers. There are beginner loops as well as challenging mountain runs. And so that all guests know which path matches their fitness and requirements, a specially designed map and small signs provide information on elevation profile, difficulty level, and length of the route – the Running and Nordic Walking map.


Along meadows, over green alpine pastures, next to sparkling mountain lakes... Walking and running in the Tannheimer Tal is not only the best training for the body but also balm for the soul. The starting points for all movement enthusiasts 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, which are easy to recognize: little figures with poles. Additionally, all trails, as well as ski slopes, are classified in black, red, and blue categories. An optimal marking system that, among other things, contributed to this probably most beautiful high valley in Europe officially calling itself a ’running and walking competence center’ since 2005.
