The path leads us further to Ivo, a companion with a spiky hairstyle, which you can find especially at night while looking for food. Well, which animal do you think is meant?
Again and again we pass various forest and meadow inhabitants. Whether it's Walter, the busy woodpecker, who hammers a cave for his chicks into the tree, or Sissi, the busy squirrel, who collects his stocks.
At each of these stations, children will find great opportunities to play and learn about the characteristics of the animals in a playful way, and of course there is also a description of the wild animal with its special features.
Entertainment and fun for young and old are therefore guaranteed.The nature trail is simply FUNtastic!

The valley end of Solda/Sulden forms a particularly fascinating natural scenery due to its exposure and wilderness at 2000 m above sea level. Forest, pastures, scree, glaciers, rocks and torrents shape the appearance. This wild and romantic beauty provided the inspiration for the responsible persons to create offers, which gives the locals and guests the opportunity to experience the valley of Solda in an intensively natural way. Therefore, the idea was born to build a water and nature facility, a suspension bridge and an adventure path in the middle of the Stelvio National Park, under the name "NATURAronda", which means to make a tour in nature and enables a mental and physical well-being. The Naturaronda consists of the bear bath, EVOPÄD and the suspension bridge.

Attention: the bear bath is closed at the moment!

In the Upper Venosta Valley, farmers have mainly grown rye over the last 150 years. Winter rye also grew at higher altitudes. In addition to rye, oats and barley also grew in the area around Stilfs.
