The Val Casies Valley has exceptionally many beautiful alpine pastures; most of them offer refreshment opportunities. The Val Casies Valley Almweg 2000 path, as its name suggests, runs at an elevation of 2,000 metres- as is signposted. The pathway offers an expressive view of the entire Val Casies Valley.

Directions
Of the many different route possibilities, we recommend a hike that offers the best views and shows the stunning alpine flora, namely from the malga Tscharnietalm in the south to the malga Uwaldalm in the north. This particularly rewarding hike is a round trip that can be walked in either direction and is easy for the regular hiker. We recommend, however, to only do a part of the route.

Follow the road no. 47/48 from the head of the valley (1460m) in the Val Casies Valley/S. Maddalena to the Tscharnietalm (1976m). This is the start of the Val Casies Valley Almweg 2000 path, which is marked with a red dot throughout. Continue in a mostly gentle up and down to the Kipfelalm (2104m), Stumpfalm (2100m) and Kaser Alm (2076m). A marked trail leads into the pretty Pfoital Valley and then continues on the marked trail slightly ascending to the Uwaldalm (2042m.). The Val Casies Valley Almweg 2000 path ends here. Descent via forest path no. 12 to the starting point.
