Embark on a challenging alpine hike through Stelvio National Park, following Trail 107 to the serene Oberweißbrunnsee. This difficult route spans 12.2 miles (19.7 km) and demands a significant 4518 feet (1377 metres) of elevation gain, typically taking around 8 hours and 47 minutes to complete. You will traverse rugged high-altitude terrain, cross the Schwärzer Joch mountain pass, and discover a series of pristine mountain lakes, including the mirror-like Oberweißbrunnsee, often described as a picture-book landscape. Keep an eye out for peaceful meadows where Haflinger horses graze, adding to the authentic alpine atmosphere.
Planning your visit requires preparation for a full day of hiking in a remote setting. The trail is well-marked with clear red and white Alpenverein Südtirol (AVS) signage, ensuring you stay on course. You can access the route from various points within the Stelvio National Park area, and there are good connections to local public transport networks, making it feasible to reach the trailhead without a private vehicle. Consider starting early to allow ample time to complete the full distance and enjoy the views, especially if you plan to stop at the Obere Weisbrunn Alm for a well-deserved break.
This particular trail is part of an extensive network maintained by the AVS, which oversees more than 9,500 kilometres of hiking trails in the region. The route offers a remarkable variety of scenery, from dramatic waterfalls to panoramic vistas over Lago Lungo, framed by sharp alpine peaks. It provides a true taste of alpine hiking at its finest, showcasing why the mountains of South Tyrol are so beloved by adventurers. The traditional mountain hospitality found at the Obere Weisbrunn Alm also offers a unique cultural experience along the way.
