This nice walking tour at the national border proceeds along a beautiful panoramic path above Lake Resia and Resia. You pass all stations of the cross which are situated at a distance of approx. 300 m from each other until the path ends at a magic little church amidst a dense forest.
We recommend to leave your car at the parking space near the Reschenhof after the village of Resia (Reschen), easy to find. From the parking space we follow the marker no. 5 until a junction, where path no. 6 leads us to us destination, the little pilgrimage church of Valliereck.
Tables and benches invite to enjoy calmly our brought along food at 1,750 m a.s.l. Valliereck is one of the toboggan runs in the Val Venosta.
