Trail Running in Val Senales

Discover trail running in Val Senales – a true paradise for runners of all experience levels.

On the legendary trails once traversed by "Ötzi," you can experience the fascinating nature and the stunning mountain landscape up close.

The term “trail” literally means “track,” “trace,” or “path” – and there are plenty of them in Val Senales: over 240 kilometers of marked hiking paths and trails crisscross the valley, inviting you to just start running. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or a true endurance athlete, you’ll find the perfect route here. The terrain ranges from demanding mountain paths to gentler routes along the valleys, making trail running possible for every taste and skill level.

We recommend the “Vertical” route:
Just under eight kilometers, 1,240 meters of elevation gain – the goal: the “Iceman Ötzi Peak” platform at 3,251 meters. For those who love steep climbs, burning thighs, and thin air, the "VERTICAL" is just right. The route starts in Kurzras at 2,011 meters and initially leads over flowy trails, then becomes more technically demanding, and finally extremely steep. At some point, the goal comes into view: the Glacier Hotel Grawand and the top station of the glacier cable car. For the way back, take the gondola. A final glance back at the trail you conquered rewards you with unforgettable impressions.
