Le paysage est un cadeau dont tu peux profiter au mieux à pied. Au printemps dans le Sud-Tyrol, tu assistes au réveil de la nature dans la vallée et dans les prairies alpines en fleurs, tandis qu'en plein été, tu es attiré par les sommets aériens, les refuges recommandés et les randonnées en altitude. Les randonnées d'automne offrent une vue grandiose et des couleurs magnifiques. En hiver, la nature enneigée t'enveloppe lors de randonnées romantiques en raquettes et en hiver.
