8 Peaks March (Vinschgau)
During the 8-Peak March, even the stamina of hardened tour walkers is put to the test. As the name suggests, the goal is to climb 8 peaks in a good 12 hours and to overcome a total of 3,200 vertical meters.

Altitude start: 894m
Highest peak: 3.004m

While things are still tranquil around the starting point Glurns, the tour soon becomes more strenuous.
Over Glurnser Köpfl and Plaschweller, the path leads to Piz Chavalatsch at 2,764m altitude and to Piz Silva at 2,855m. Other summit goals are the Minschuns-Schafberg (2,935m), the Furkelspitze (3,004m), the large Tartscher Kopf (2,958m) and the Korspitze (2,932m). The Rötelspitze (3,023m) and the Stilfser Joch (2,760m) form the endpoints of the extreme mountain tour.
