Immerse yourself into a world of discovery

Ready to enjoy a unique holiday? Ready for experiences that will stick forever in your memory? In the Antholz valley you will discover much more than impressive peaks, lush green alpine pastures, dark green spruce and swiss pine forests and rustic mountain huts. In the midst of the imposing mountain world of the Rieserferner mountain range – with its 38 three-thousanders – you will encounter enchanting water worlds. Here, in our Blue Valley, waters freeze on icy glaciers, meander their way through rocks and valleys, rush down roaring waterfalls, stream along the riverbed and come to rest in picturesque mountain lakes. Discover the rare landscape of the Rieserferner-Ahrn Nature Park! How? Find it out together with us!

Enjoy unique landscapes

Our nature-loving dale extends into a charming side valley of the Pustertal valley, to the east of Bruneck/Brunico and all the way up to the mountain pass called Staller Saddle at the Austrian border. 6 towns offer the ideal starting point for activities in one of the most unspoilt vales in South Tyrol. And there are so many of these activities that after the first few days you will already be thinking about what you want to do during your next holiday. Our motto: Head out into nature – all year round! Be it hiking and mountaineering, promenading, biking and jumping into the lake in summer or skiing, biathlon, cross-country skiing and winter hiking in the snowy fairytale landscape in winter – enjoy the one-of-a-kind nature and explore its most secret corners.
