Marlinger Waalweg

Highlight • Trail

Waalwege are paths that have been created on artificially created irrigation canals.

You can always hike along the stream without having to climb too many meters.

Waal Tunnel Through the Rock

Highlight • Structure

What they did back then is a masterpiece. The canal was partly built in the 1930s and driven through the rock. But back then they didn't have the tools we have now. My respect

April 5, 2022,Wanderung auf dem Marlinger Waalweg

With the best hiking weather, we start again in Partschins through the apple orchards in the direction of Töll. The first tentative blossoms delight the hikers and we start in Töll on the Marlinger Waalweg. Waale have nothing to do with marine mammals, they are irrigation systems artificially created by humans and are used to irrigate the orchards and vineyards …

July 9, 2023,Marlinger Waalweg – ab Töll

On the right, the water canal ripples next to you, on the left you are rewarded with a permanent panoramic view - on the approximately 12-kilometer-long Marlinger Waalweg. Frequent long shady areas along the rocky escarpments make the tour a pleasant walk while the sun scorches the vineyards and apple slopes. In between there are a few opportunities to stop …

August 30, 2024,🇦🇹Marlinger Waalweg bis Lana

Today we set off from Partchins on the Marlinger Waalweg. At 12 km, it is the longest and "perhaps" also the most beautiful Waalweg in the Merano region. A varied path along the Waal and the vineyards. The Panorama Restaurant Leitenschenke is also recommended. You can't sit and eat something delicious any better 😂👍. The staff are friendly, the food …

We took the bus to Meran and changed trains there to continue to Töll. That's where we started. The Waalweg is an easy path with many beautiful views and places to stop for refreshments. The Waale were formerly used for irrigation in agriculture. After our arrival in Lana we took the bus to Meran and changed trains there to return …

May 5, 2022,Waalweg Algund-Lana

Beautiful route ... flat and at ground level, suitable for all ages, as there are hardly any inclines. We took the bus to Algund and got straight into the hiking trail. In Lana, the bus goes back to Meran every 20 minutes.

June 6, 2023,🇮🇹 Marlinger Waalweg von Lana nach Töll

At almost 12km in length, the Marlinger Waalweg is the longest and at the same time one of the most popular irrigation channels near Meran. From the Lana bus station it is a steep climb to the Raffeiner Weg junction, where the curves descend to the start of the footpath. At the time of recording, this first part was unfortunately …

September 27, 2024,Marlinger Waal auf dem Trockenen.

The Marlinger Waal had no water that day. It is fed by the Etsch near Töll. Looking at the water in the Etsch, I could imagine that the water supply had been temporarily paused. The heavy rains before made the water concrete grey! Really murky. The mud would silt up the Waal so quickly. You wouldn't even be able to …
