Sky Swing with View of Mals and Glurns

Highlight • Viewpoint

Admittedly, this swing doesn't reach all the way to the sky. But it still gives you a heavenly feeling, not least because it was built in a really more than promising place.

Sometimes it runs wider and sometimes narrower. Sometimes it leads you along so-called Waalen, sometimes just over lush green alpine pastures. Either way, the Vinschger Höhenweg really gives you wonderful views at all times!

March 9, 2025,Wandern zum Malettes 1.610m..Vinschgau 🇮🇹💪😍

Malettes..1,610m..Mals Vinschgau 🇮🇹🥰 further than planned 🫣😅
Partly steep climb through a lot of forest and at the beginning on a familiar path..from halfway it became wintry..very icy..so I changed my plans..not to go back the same way but via the Vinschgau high trail back to Mals..it ended up being 4km longer but snow-free and less steep..
