Themed Hikes

Ice age

Sand in Taufers/Campo Tures, Ahrntal/Valle Aurina
from center

Hiking trough typical high forests and partly abandoned alpine pastures to reach the glacier world of the Rieserfernergruppe mountain range. Lots of creeks, brooks and waterfalls, fed by the glaciers, will give you an idea of the abundance of water in this area. At the Tristennöckl summit (2465 m) you can observe some arolla pine trees in their highest habitat in the Eastern Alps. The walk over boulders and moraines will bring you close to the edge of the floating ice which has vitally shaped the landscape.
