Val Passiria/Passeiertal offers more than just scenic hikes; it beckons those craving a faster pace. Here, Nordic walking and jogging trails weave beside glistening streams, traverse vibrant Alpine meadows, and meander through cool, dense forests. Don’t miss the running trail that starts directly from the Quellenhof See Lodge. It is about 20 kilometres long and winds along the Passirio/Passer river in or out of the valley. If you prefer to run or walk in a group, we recommend taking a look at our in-house exercise and fitness programme, which always includes running and Nordic walking excursions with professional fitness trainers. The run is followed by strength and stretching exercises, and in summer, a Kneipp session (cold water therapy) in the cool Passirio/Passer river.
