LONG LIVE SPORT

Climbing in Val Senales in South Tyrol

Climbing is about pure emotion: Switching off and action, challenges and happiness. And what could be a better setting for one of the most popular mountain sports than the Alpine Arena Senales? Around the Val Senales head and the glacier area you can conquer bouldering, various routes, vertical rock faces - and even your fear of heights! For beginners and families we recommend the Ötzi Rope Park climbing garden just before Kurzras and the new Larix via ferrata with parallel hiking trail in the Alpin Arena Senales. 

Other climbing options near Val Senales in South Tyrol: the Mastaun climbing garden near the village of Unser Frau, the Juval castle climbing garden and the Hoachwool via ferrata - both at the entrance to the valley.

Larix Ferrata & Alpin Trail (July to October)

The via Ferrata "Larix" (Latin for larch), at the foot of the Kurzrasbach waterfall, runs over several rope bridges, two sky ladders, a rope slide and partly challenging climbing passages. In the first part, the via Ferrata leads over and along a small stream and offers plenty of action, interrupted by short walking passages. In the upper part, 
from the Rotkofelsee, the Ferrata gets a little lost and offers three short and rather flat Ferrata passages. A successful mix of mountain hike and enjoyable action Ferrata, which particularly delights beginners and families with young people who like to climb.

Suggestion: The "Alpin Trail" mountain hiking trail (marked with red crosses) runs parallel to the via Ferrata. For example, families can start together, some via the action-packed Ferrata and others via the hiking trail. Both experienced hikers and sporty climbers will get their money's worth.
