Lake Resia: hikes for all tastes

Activities galore

The pastures ring with the bells of grazing cows. Fir and larch trees seem to bow gently towards the sparkling waters. The sun's rays gild the landscapes and infuse pure vitality. This energy in the air invites you to be outdoors, to take a hike or to get on a mountain bike. The possibilities are many, even for those who prefer the water to the mountains: Lake Resia is one of the best for sailing or kitesurfing. Enjoy every single moment to the fullest!

 

Hiking

The landscapes are so varied that there is something for everyone who likes to hike in the area. A very special destination is the triple border milestone: we start from Resia and after about a 13 km hike, we reach the famous stone straddling three nations that marks the border between Italy, Switzerland and Austria, and you can believe, just for a moment, that you have the power to be in three places at one time.

Biking

Amid the 150 km of trails, the pride of the Val Venosta is the cycling path that runs along the Adige River to Merano. The road around Lake Resia also offers spectacular views. In addition, there are trails and Enduro routes for both beginners and expert mountain bikers. If you need to rent a bike, you can find one at the train stations or in the Südtirol Rad bike centres.

Water sports

“Sun, lake, love”: this is the motto of a holiday in Resia, considered the mecca of kitesurfers and sailors due to the cool wind that blows in the area. So, hit the waves and let yourself be carried away by the sensation! Kitesurfing lessons are also offered on site. Those who prefer to experience the romantic side of the lake can opt for a quiet trip aboard the elegant ship MS Hubertus.
