Val Senales Glacier Alpin Arena

Adventure above 3,000 meters

The Schnalstal Valley Glacier is a place where the crystalline beauty of the ice meets the majestic splendor of nature. At an altitude of over 3.000 meters, the glacier ski area offers breathtaking views of the Alps.

The Iceman Ötzi Peak viewing platform on the summit of Grawand allows visitors to savor the pristine beauty of the ice and mountains. Here, at 3.212 meters, you can enjoy a panorama of 126 peaks over 3.000 meters across three countries. 

The Schnalstal Valley Glacier Cable Car transports winter sports enthusiasts from Maso Corto at the end of the valley to over 3.000 meters, offering a unique view of the surrounding mountain landscape. The famous spa town of Merano is only about a 40-minute drive from the glacier ski area, making it an ideal destination for a day trip.

The Alpin Arena Senales offers a unique blend of winter sports, nature experiences, and historical discoveries that will captivate and inspire every visitor.

Summer:
In the Alpin Arena Senales, the mountain groups of the Hochjochferner glacier rise majestically. Here, summer promises nature in all its beauty.
In a high alpine landscape, yet in peaceful seclusion, one can hike and bike, passing lovingly maintained pastures, ascending to scenic peaks, surrounded by a landscape defined by snow-white mountain tops, deep blue lakes, and vast larch forests.
From the Cabrio Adventure with the glacier cable car, mountain carts, via ferratas, and countless hiking trails, there's something for everyone in the Alpin Arena Schnals.

🐑🏔️ Transhumance in the Schnalstal Valley – a living tradition

When the sheep return from their summer pastures to the Schnalstal Valley, a centuries-old tradition comes to life.🐑✨ Transhumance is much more than an impressive sheep drive – it is a living part of the region’s cultural heritage and history.

This year, the return of the flocks will once again be celebrated with traditional shepherds’ festivals featuring music, local specialities and genuine South Tyrolean hospitality. 🎶🍻

📍 Saturday, 12 September 2026 – Vernagt
From 11:00 am, shepherds and drovers will be welcomed at the lake with a large traditional festival. Enjoy traditional music and local specialities in a unique alpine setting.

📍 Sunday, 13 September 2026 – Kurzras
A traditional shepherds’ festival will already be underway from 11:00 am near the “Schofschoad” (collection point). The flock is expected to arrive in Kurzras between 3:00 and 4:00 pm.

Join us as thousands of sheep make their way back to the valley and experience one of Val Senales’ most fascinating living traditions!❤️
