Funes

Welcome to your holidays in Val di Funes at the foot of the imposing Geisler mountain range.

> Altitude: 1,132 metres above sea level (San Pietro)

Agriculture characterises the colourful valley of Valle di Funes. If you travel right to the end of the valley you may watch some majestic mountains, called Gruppo delle Odle. They are part of the Puez-Odle Nature Park, covering an area of 10,703 hectares. The valley includes the villages Tiso, San Valentino, San Pietro, Colle, San Giacomo and Santa Maddalena.

In Tiso you will find a fairly recent Mineralogical Museum, where you can study how crystals are created and what substances they are made of. Moreover, you shouldn’t miss the so-called “Teiser Kugeln”, stunning caves that feature several valuable minerals…

> We suggest: Hike to the little church of San Giovanni in Ranui and discover the fascinating world of minerals at the local museum!
