10 tips for the summer around the Alpe di Siusi

Legendary walks. The traces of the Sciliar witches lead hikers to mystical places: the cult mountain Sciliar is a meeting place of witches, the witches' chairs and the witches' benches are their resting places.

Mountain biking all around. 33 tours, 1,000 total kilometres, 35,000 meters uphill invite you to explore the biking area Val Gardena / Alpe di Siusi.

Lake Laghetto di Fiè. At the foot of the Sciliar mountain lies Italy's most beautiful lake, which, with a water temperature of about 22 ° C, invites to cool down after a hot summer day.


Tour on horse back. Explore the surroundings of the holiday area Alpe di Siusi on the back of haflingers, quarter horses and ponies.

Magic in a mountain hut. What would be holidays without visiting one of the numerous lodges on and around the Alpe di Siusi? The mountain huts offer traditional South Tyrolean dishes such as Knödel "dumplings" and Strudel.

Music is in the air. Chamber Music Festival, Schlern International Music Festival and Summer Classics cater for classic sounds above the pasture.

Castelrotto from above. The Castelrotto tower with its 88 meters is one of the highest in South Tyrol. 325 wooden steps lead up into the tower. Once at the top, you can enjoy a magnificent view over the village.

Hay bath. The power of herbs unfolds its full effect in a hay bath.

On Oswald's footsteps. The ruins of Castelvecchio and Salego above the village Siusi allo Sciliar and the Oswald von Wolkenstein walking trail invite to a trip into the Middle Ages.
