Experience the Running and Nordic Walking Arena Tannheimer Tal
Whether breathless beginner or well-trained mountain athlete: Everyone who wants to get moving in the fresh air and explore the surrounding mountains on foot will find what they are looking for in the Tannheimer Tal. Active people of all levels, from hobby athletes to professionals, face a daily choice: The largest trail network in Tyrol offers 26 marked routes covering a total of 186 kilometers. Beginner loops are available as well as challenging mountain runs. To ensure that all guests know which route suits their fitness and requirements, a specially designed map and small signs provide information about the elevation profile, difficulty rating, and route length – the running and Nordic walking map.
Along meadows, over green alpine pastures, past sparkling mountain lakes... Walking and running in the Tannheimer Tal is not only the best training for the body but especially a balm for the soul. Starting points for all those eager to move are found in the six villages of 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. Furthermore, all routes, as well as ski slopes, are classified into categories black, red, and blue. This optimal labeling contributed, among other things, to this probably most beautiful high valley in Europe officially calling itself a "Running and Walking Competence Center" since 2005.
