The mountain village of Ulvas in Alta Val Passiria has got only 40 inhabitants. Starting from Moso you can reach Ulvas via Plata. The village is a real jewel for hikers and alpinists and an ideal starting point for exploration walks in the Gruppo di Tessa Nature Park. Probably the most famous route in this area is the Alta Via Meranese, a high path which comprises two circuits, meeting right in the village of Ulvas. This trail of several days can be walked in clockwise and counter-clockwise direction.
Another popular hiking destination are the alpine pastures of Ulvas with the hiking car park Ulvas-Kratzegg as starting point, and the Ulvas Waalweg path, starting in the village. Those who prefer scaling mountains can climb the Cima Matatz, delimiting the Val Passiria in the west.
