In the narrower sense, Vigiljoch refers to a 1743 m above sea level high pass over the northeastern foothills of the Zufritt ridge of the Ortler Alps in South Tyrol (Italy). This forms a saddle that is only slightly pronounced in the surrounding mountain range and is the location of the little church of St. Vigil am Joch with frescoes from the 14th century. In the broader sense, Vigiljoch also refers to the mountain ridge on both sides, which is largely forested and has several flat hills (Larchbichl 1837 m, Bischofskofel 1783 m, Marlinger Joch 1779 m, Rauher Bichl 2018 m), which rises between the lower Vinschgau, the Burggrafenamt around Meran and the entrance to the Ultental and only gains significantly in height in a southwesterly direction towards the Naturnser Hochjoch.

Unforgettable the panorama of the Dolomites.
Do not be late for the gondola back to the valley, otherwise there is a walk of 2.5 hours ahead of you.

The little church of St. Vigilius on the Vigiljoch is one of the highest churches in South Tyrol and really beautiful 👍🏻
