The earth pyramids in Nobls/Montoppio

General description

The earth pyramids in Nobls/Jenesien are fascinating geological formations dating from the last Ice Age. Here, the red clay soil of the large 'Wieser Lahn' landslide area stands out clearly from the surrounding meadows and forests, allowing the impressive earth pyramids to appear in all their glory. These unique natural wonders are not only a popular destination for hikers but also an impressive example of the power of nature. Additionally, the 'Wieser Lahn' contains the source of the Margarethen creek, a vital watercourse that flows down into the Adige Valley toward Siebeneich. A visit to the earth pyramids promises an unforgettable experience amid a breathtaking landscape!

Together for a sustainable Tschögglberg
Together for a sustainable Tschögglberg
Nature reveals its true beauty when we preserve it untouched. The Tschögglberg with its communities of Hafling, Vöran, Mölten and Jenesien is geographically, geologically and scenically unique. This uniqueness must be protected. For this reason, we - the three tourism associations on the Tschögglberg high plateau (Hafling-Vöran-Meran 2000, Mölten and Jenesien) - have decided to make this a central part of our strategy.
