Velturno-Facts

Whenever you visit Velturno, you will be overwhelmed by the impressing vistas offered by this varied landscape, crowned by the towering DOLOMITE-RANGE. Your eyes can wander from the velvety-green vineyards below the village up to flowering mountain-meadows and the Feldthurner Alm (2.500 m above sea-level!).

Velturno is a true hiker’s paradise for all seasons – enjoy sunny late-winter days and the first spring-flowers, the blush of alpine-rhodondendron in full bloom in July or golden fall-days and the horn-of-plenty “Toerggelen”, a bucolic harvest-custom that is a “must”. Visit the romantic VELTHURNS-CASTLE; SAEBEN-CLOISTER and the VILLANDERER ALM:

Eisack-Valley Hiking-Route "Chestnut-Path"

Only approx. 50 m above our house you can enter the unique CHESTNUT-PATH, following sun-dappled chestnut-forests from Vahrn near Brixen along the flanks of the Eisack-valley via the Rittner-heights and its famous mud-pyramides down to the Bozen-basin ending at the legendary Runkelstein-castle – this route would be a wonderful initiation to the beauties of the CHESTNUT-PATH. In addition to the breathtaking vistas along the CHESTNUT-PATH during the fall season, it is a fascinating discovery-tour for nature-lovers in other seasons also.
