In the warm season, the mountains and alpine pastures invite you to hike, enjoy cycling in the valley and mountain biking in the mountains, as well as climbing, swimming, and rafting. A dense network of hiking trails crisscrosses the sunny holiday region of Gitschberg Jochtal, characterized by green alpine meadows, and 30 alpine pastures, including some truly idyllic huts and spots with fantastic views, await your visit.

The Vals Valley is a popular starting point for many hikers, e.g., to the Wilde Kreuzspitze mountain, to the Rifugio Bressanone mountain hut or the Wilde See lake. Not far are the interesting sites of the Fane Alm Alpine pasture and the quaint Pfunderer mountain farms. But that's not all. A wonderful experience for young and old is a horseback ride into the South Tyrolean mountains. Riding stables on the Plose offer riding excursions for the whole family and riding lessons under professional guidance.

In addition to the many sports opportunities, there are also many attractions to discover in South Tyrol, including the legendary Rodenegg Castle, the glacier mummy Ötzi at the Archaeological Museum in Bolzano, or the Messner Mountain Museum Ripa at Bruneck Castle.

For children, the mining museums and the Mineral Museum in Teis are real magnets. At Dolomythos in Innichen, they will learn exciting information about the history of the Dolomites, which are also very close by and are great for hiking, biking, and climbing.

The charming alpine towns of Brixen and Bruneck are also worth a visit for their culinary diversity. Couples in particular should not miss a leisurely stroll through the medieval alleys with their lovely and high-quality shops and stylish bars.
