Nature Adventure Hiking in the Texelgruppe Nature Park

High views and distant sights: guided hike with guide Arnold from Magdfeld via the Merano High Trail to Saltaus and along the Schildhöfe trail to Quellenhof

Fancy a varied hike where you can discover the secrets of nature? This guided tour in the Texelgruppe Nature Park not only offers exciting insights into flora and fauna, but also runs along a particularly scenic section of the Merano High Mountain Trail, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year. From Magdfeld, we follow the high trail with magnificent panoramic views over the Passeiertal Valley and the surrounding mountains. At this quiet altitude, with a little attention you can also observe the
birdlife - whether chirping in the bushes or as silent shadows in the sky.
The descent towards Saltaus/Saltusio begins at Riederberg. From there, we follow the Schildhöfeweg trail past traditional farms that have characterised the valley for centuries - a piece of living cultural history. Our hike ends in the small village of Quellenhof/Sorgente.

You will be accompanied by a trained nature park guide, who will provide fascinating insights along the way: which plants grow here? How does the landscape change throughout the year? Which animals are native, and how do humans and nature share this space? The tour is part of a series of nine guided hikes through the Texelgruppe Nature Park - each with a different destination, each path offering new perspectives.
