Short description

Hike along the Lindenweg from Mühlbach to Meransen.

Description

First mentioned in 1774, the Lindenweg from Mühlbach to Meransen is probably one of the oldest and most impressive cobbled paths in South Tyrol and at the same time one of the few that was already used in Attila's time.

Starting point of the tour

Village centre of Mühlbach

Destination point of the tour

Meransen

Route description

The Lindenweg, which is quite steep throughout, is marked 12 and starts in the centre of Mühlbach. Head northwards to the upper end of the village until you reach a narrow road and a last farm. Wooden steps take you to the start of the actual trail, which now leads to Meransner Straße in sparse woodland and on an unpaved path.

After crossing the road, the path is initially flat for a short while, but soon becomes steeper and steeper and is now lined with large granite paving stones. Hikers reach Meransen via a final stretch of meadow.
