Twelve kilometers long, the
Marlinger Waalweg trail is a popular hiking trail which runs along the former irrigation channels, the longest of its kind in
South Tyrol. Starting at the Töll Bridge, the 270-year-old trail follows the irrigation channel through apple orchards and woods, offering panoramic views. After pausing to admire the
medieval Lebenberg Castle, hikers continue slightly downhill along the slope of Marling mountain to the village of Lana.
Spectacular views of the surrounding mountains can be seen along the entire length of the Marlinger Waalweg trail. The agricultural landscape lining the irrigation channels is also impressive, with meadows and forests alternating with vineyards and orchards. Along the Marlinger Waalweg trail there are also impressive views of the
Merano basin, the Val Passiria/Passeier Valley, and the imposing Texelgruppe mountain range. The Marlinger Waalweg trail is well-connected to the public transport network, allowing visitors to move around without need for a car.
