A walk through Kurtinig / Cortina
Südtirols Süden
Starting in the historic village centre, this delightful walk takes you along almost completely flat paths and quiet country lanes through the surrounding agricultural landscape. Along the way, enjoy sweeping views of the mountains and the peaceful atmosphere of a small village deeply connected to its farming traditions.
Thanks to its short distance and virtually no elevation gain, this walk is ideal for families, leisurely walkers and anyone wishing to explore Südtirols Süden at a relaxed pace. The route is particularly beautiful in spring, when the apple trees are in blossom, and in autumn, when the countryside glows with warm seasonal colours.

The route then continues westwards towards the Adige River. Near the river, the trail turns north, giving you a different perspective on the valley and its beautiful rural surroundings.
Afterwards, the route heads back towards the village. Follow Handwerkerstraße (Via degli Artigiani) and Gartenweg (Via degli Orti) to return to the residential area. The final section takes you back to St. Martin's Square, where your relaxing walk comes to an end.
The entire circular route is approximately 2.9 kilometres long and almost completely flat, making it perfect for an easy and enjoyable walk without significant physical effort.
