Sights & events in Chienes-Kiens

Set in the heart of the lush Kronplatz region, Chienes-Kiens is an idyllic village with a picture postcard landscape of mountains, forests and meadows.

One of the best places to enjoy the peace and quiet is Issinger Weiher, one of the last remaining pond biotopes in South Tyrol. The waterside location is perfect for cooling off in summer and discovering the region's diverse flora and fauna.

Culture lovers should pay a visit to the baroque Ehrenburg Castle or the gothic  Pfarrkirche St. Sigmund church.

Those with a fine nose will find plenty to discover at the mountain pine oil distillery with its herb garden and the Gatscher cheese farm where visitors can see how local cheese is made.

Themed hikes, family days and traditional events are also held throughout the year.
