Barbian/Barbiano
Trail of the plum of Barbian/Barbiano
Leave the motorway at Klausen/Chiusa. Follow the state street of Brenner/Brennero (SS12) in direction of Bozen/Bolzano or Waidbruck/Ponte Gardena. After ca. 6 km you arrive Waidbruck/Ponte Gardena and from that point you have to take the slip road in the right direction. Follow the street and after ca. 4 km you will arrive at Barbian/Barbiano.
We start in the village square in Barbiano/Barbian and walk along the Plum Trail towards the lower part of the village, past the Feltuner farm to the cross. There the trail becomes very steep up past the Frühaufhof farm, crossing the road and then, at the Haus Urban guesthouse, proceeds uphill to a fork in the road. From there we continue right and through the upper part of the village back to the centre. On the way there are lots of information panels giving interesting information about the Barbiano plums. Especially good for families.
