Theme trails

Whether they are about alpine pastures or bees, legends or squirrels - themed trails are exciting for everyone, not just families

The Val di Fosse Adventure Trail and the South Tyrolean Strawberry Trail, the Legends Path on the Salto plateau and the Planet Trail - the list of theme trails in South Tyrol is long and is not aimed exclusively at families. These walks feature informative display boards, sculptures, and interactive stations, making for an engaging experience that goes far beyond a simple hike.

If summit tours and hut-to-hut hikes are not on the agenda, themed trails - which are usually easy and not too long - present an interesting alternative for a day on the open air. Here is a selection of first-hand accounts, following in the footsteps of witches, bees, and more:
