Trekking to the Panoramic Malga Polinar in the Stelvio National Park

A peaceful hike through the Stelvio National Park, following in the footsteps of past shepherds. The route is steep in some parts but always follows a wide, safe path. The effort will be well worth it once you reach Malga Polinar, with its breathtaking panorama and delicious traditional dishes. On the way back, you'll take part of the Valorz Trail, where you'll spot some installations made from forest materials.

Directions to Follow:

Walking through beautiful old huts that tell the story of the valley’s farming past, you will enter the forest where the forest road begins to climb. The path winds through tall fir trees and soon transforms into an old mule track, zigzagging up the mountainside. This route is ancient, built stone by stone by hand, and once allowed the herders to reach the pasture of the malga every spring with their herds and return in the autumn.

Step by step, you will notice the forest changing. The fir trees will gradually give way to larches, growing more sparse until the horizon opens up near Malga Polinar.

At the malga, we recommend trying the traditional dishes and purchasing their exquisite local products.

The last part of the return will take you along part of the Valorz Trail, where you’ll encounter installations depicting forest animals. These works were made with natural materials by the artist Maurizio Misseroni and accompanied by the verses of poetess Teresa Girardi.

You can reach the malga in about 2 hours from Plaze dei Forni parking or about 1.5 hours from Fontanon parking (accessible by car only during the summer months without a permit).
