Sustainable 3 Zinnen

The Dolomites Region 3 Zinnen is not only known for its impressive natural landscapes but also for its conscious approach to the environment and resources. This is reflected, among other things, in measures takenin the field of local energy supply. A visible sign of this commitment is the certification of the destination with the South Tyrol Sustainability Label®. A particular focus lies on the use of renewable energy. Since as early as 1901, the power plant in Toblach/Dobbiaco has been generating electricity from hydropower – today supplying most households and businesses in Toblach and Innichen/San Candido. The district heating plant Toblach-Innichen generates heat using biomass such as wood chips, bark, and sawdust. The ORC module installed in 2003 was the first of its kind in South Tyrol, and the educational trail opened in 2005 was even unique throughout Europe. These examples illustrate how hydropower and biomass can offer solutions for local energy supply. Several long-established hotels also hold the South Tyrol Sustainability Label. They meet defined certification criteria that are based on a GSTC-recognized standard.

Working together for a clean environment

Did you know that it takes a plastic bottle around 500 years to break down in the mountains? A cigarette butt takes up to seven years to decompose, whilst a tissue takes almost five. Rubbish in the countryside harms the natural environment and endangers animals. That is why the South Tyrol/Südtirol CleanUP Days initiative is taking place again this year. From 17 to 20 September 2026, the Puez-Geisler and Texel Group Nature Parks, the Odles Slow Dolomites, Gitschberg Jochtal/Rio Pusteria, Ritten/Renon, Ahrntal/Valle Aurina, Antholzertal/Valle Anterselva, Eggental/Val d’Ega, Dolomites Region 3 Zinnen, Ratschings/Racines, Südtirols Süden and Lana are inviting people to take part in joint litter-picking campaigns. In this way, everyone involved helps to protect nature and the countryside. After all, every little bit helps to keep paths, woods and riverbanks clean.

You can join in too.You can collect all the equipment you need from the tourism organisations in the participating regions. You can plan your own route or join a guided litter-picking walk and help clean up a path. You should then take the rubbish you have collected to a designated collection point.

Get out into nature

We’re will to bet that both the kids and the adults will fondly remember the Ranger program for a long time to come. With a lot of fun and a pinch of adventure, the whole family, accompanied by an expert , can discover the area’s incredible nature. On the first day, we’ll explore the 3 Zinnen Nature Park visitor centre, the 3 Zinnen Nature Park and the Fanes-Sennes-Prags Nature Park. The second adventure, which takes place in the evening, leads to the WoodWonderWorld. Through the magic of the sagas and legends, there is a mysterious atmosphere, and with a bit of luck, we might even be able to hear nocturnal animals. The Ranger programme is aimed at families with children ages 7 to 12.

Locally sourced and enjoyed

Would you like a slice of mild cow's milk cheese? Spicy Speck smoked ham from the farm? Or a hand-woven woolen blanket? Find a wide range of local, high-quality foods and handcrafted articles for daily use in the Dolomites Region 3 Zinnen, as in the rest of South Tyrol. Lots of producers sell straight from the farm where you can sample the treats and get to know the producers. In this way, you will experience moments of delicious flavour as well as gaining exciting insider knowledge about the cultivation and processing. With a bit of luck, you can even look over the shoulders of craftsmen at work as they create jewellery, wooden sculptures and baskets while strolling through the village. Hand craftsmanship has a long-standing tradition in South Tyrol. High quality and durability are the primary factors, which are achieved through the use of proprietary manufacturing techniques and high-quality raw materials.
