On June 7, 1915, Monte Piana was taken by Austrian soldiers and fortified despite Italian resistance. A little later, the Italians managed to take its southern side. Since the border between Italy and the Habsburg Monarchy of Austria-Hungary ran right through Monte Piana, both sides wanted to hold onto this strategically important mountain. A bloody trench warfare lasting two years followed, which was ultimately not to bring about any decisive change.

Off we go to the special forest animals on the Ritten...
From the Oberbozen train station we follow the small signs with the Pyramix. This awaits us at the start of the children's trail at the edge of the forest above Oberbozen and will tell us a lot about the wild animals. We can already see the first colored spots shining through the trees. I wonder what that could be? ...It's Fiona, the clever fox. She has found a great place for her den here in the forest.
The path leads us on to Ivo, a prickly companion who is mainly found foraging at night. Well, which animal is that?
Again and again we pass various forest and meadow dwellers. Whether it's Walter the hard-working great spotted woodpecker, who hammers a cave into the tree for his chicks with his pointed beak, or Sissi, the busy squirrel, who gathers her supplies for the winter in summer.
At each of these stations, children will find great play opportunities that teach them 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 characteristics.
Breathing in healthy forest air and fun for young and old are guaranteed.
Exciting hike from Lana to Tesimo/Tisens
At an altitude of 2,355 m, the mining village on Schneeberg/Monte Neve is easily accessible – but only on foot. With its 800-year history, a unique landscape and gastronomic delights, the Schneeberg remains a highly-frequented tourist destination. In fact, the "Schneeberg" doesn't refer to a "mountain" as such – but rather to the whole mining complex. To the locals in the Passeiertal Valley, "Schneeberg" mainly refers to St. Martin/S. Martino's mining village that includes a mountain refuge with a restaurant and the Adventure mine; now a tourist attraction.
