Holidays in Marling

During a walk in and around Marling, you will have a dreamlike view of the city of Meran, the surrounding village and the natural landscape. The “Waalweg” path of Marling is perfect to enjoy the view and to explore the surrounding cultural and natural landscape. With a length of 12 km, it is the longest trail along old irrigation channels in South Tyrol. A part of it was planned as a forest adventure trail for families.

The WineCulturePath of Marling combines hiking with exciting information about the history of wine, that has since ever played an essential role in this region. At Marlinger Berg and Vigiljoch, there are many other tours in different altitudes. More demanding mountaineers should for instance try the high-alpine path of Marling.
