General description
The Naturnser Hochwart belongs to a large number of peaks that bear the name Hochwart.
They are all magnificent panoramic mountains that do not always impress with their height, but with their dominance or the height of their embrasures.
The view of the Ötztal Alps in the north, the entire Vinschgau Valley, the Ulten Valley and the Dolomites in the southeast is overwhelming.
The summit hike to the "Naturnser Hochwart" can be combined with a beautiful alpine pasture hike.

Public transport
For those who want to leave their car at home: the trains of the Vinschgau railway stop directly at the valley station of the new mountain cable car and the well-known Vinschgau cycle path follows the river banks of the Etsch not far from there.
