Bell Tower of Curon in Lake Resia

Highlight • Monument

The church tower of the village of Alt-Graun, which sunk when the lake was dammed, is an impressive photo motif at any time of the year.

Plamort Plateau and Tank Barriers

Highlight (Segment) • Monument

Far above on the plateau Plamort lead this trail past the famous tank barriers, it leads over the border Austria-Italy and ends at the historic bunker. If you take the Bergkastel cable car from the valley, you will save yourself the tedious altitude of the ascent.

Plamort Viewpoint of Lake Resia

Highlight • Viewpoint

The so-called "Poserfelsen" is the photo spot par excellence on the three-country enduro trails. Below you can see the Reschensee, on the left side of which the Grauner church tower in the lake treats itself to a bath. In the background, with hopefully good visibility, you can see the Ortler, which is easy to see with its massive ice armor. At 3,905 meters, it is the highest mountain in South Tyrol.

Plamort Anti-tank Barriers

Highlight • Monument

The anti-tank barrier at Plamort is part of the Vallo Alpino (Alpine Wall). The line of fortifications were built between the 1920s and 1942 but were never fully completed. It was intended to secure the border regions to France, Yugoslavia, Switzerland and also the future ally – the German Reich. The relationship between the two fascist states of Mussolini and Hitler was not based on close trust. For this reason, between 1938 and 1942, the construction of the border fortifications of the Alpenwall in South Tyrol was promoted. This also includes the system at the Reschenpass and Plamort.

Construction was stopped only on October 4, 1942, after Hitler had announced to his buddy Mussolini at the Brenner station that he would respect the borders of South Tyrol and that it would remain Italian. In 1943 Mussolini was deposed and an armistice was declared towards the Allies. After the subsequent declaration of war on the German Reich, the Wehrmacht marched into South Tyrol. The fully functional system of anti-tank obstacles, bunkers, roads for supplies and command posts at Plamort was handed over without a fight.

A support association offers interested visitors guided tours through the labyrinths of military installations and the museum in the Etschquelle bunker no. 20. Information is available here: vinschgau.net/de/service-info/aktuelles/alle-veranstaltungen.html?eventid=d4deff3b2b624c489b97884f29bb294d.

National border

Highlight • Monument

The Austrian-Italian border is marked up here by a fence. As a border crossing is a gap in the fence, which is provided with a wooden bridge - probably so no cows over the border run. Anyway, it's fun to drive over it.

Plamort Trail and Dragon's Teeth Anti-Tank Barriers

Highlight (Segment) • Historical Site

The Plamort Trail at the Reschen Pass offers you a lot of variety in nature, history and driving fun over its 4.3 kilometers. The starting point is at the impressive Plamort tank barrier. Shortly afterwards, you are treated to a fantastic view over the upper Vinschgau from Lake Reschen to the Ortler massif. The trail winds its way down to the lake in many bends at a depth of 750 meters. It is worth stopping on the sunny terrace of the historic Stieralm along the way.
