Santa Valburga between Lakeside Paths, Culture and Mountain Landscapes

Lakeside landscape and accessible waterfront path at the Zoggler Reservoir

The Zoggler Reservoir is the largest lake in the Ultental Valley and lies directly behind the village of St. Walburg. The New Ultental Lakeside Path runs along the scenic lakeshore. The route is designed as an accessible, flat waterfront promenade. For travellers who need to take mobility by the water into account, this specific route is a separate planning factor. The combination of lakeshore and flat path makes the waterside area of Santa Valburga a distinct focus when planning a visit to the village. The flat, accessible design can be taken directly into account when selecting a suitable section of the path.

Kneipp Trail, art and outdoor pool in the village centre

The St. Walburg Kneipp Trail begins in the village centre of St. Walburg and comprises six creative stations with art installations. For travellers interested in exercise and art, the trail can be planned specifically because of its start in the village centre and its six stations. The two paths therefore have different focal points: on the New Lakeside Path, the route along the shore is the main feature, while on the Kneipp Trail, the focus is on the sequence of the starting point and art installations. The St. Walburg outdoor pool is located at Schwimmbad 62 in St. Walburg, 39016 Ulten, and is heated.

Church and farming history in Santa Valburga

The parish church in Santa Valburga was first mentioned in documents in 1278. Its tower and apse were built in the Romanesque style and date from the 12th century. The CULTEN Museum is housed in a farmstead dating from the 15th century. Those interested in culture can plan their stay here around two different focal points: sacred architecture at the parish church and farming history at the CULTEN Museum.
