Summer pleasures
in Ridnaun valley
The Ridnaun valley is an absolute hiking paradise. It offers the right path for everyone: it is possible to make comfortable walks of about one hour to cozy mountain huts as well as extended mountain trails (i.e. the Becherhaus with more than 3000m height).
Many mountain paths are perfectly suited for family hiking. The kids can run, explore little water creeks, collect a bunch of flowers, maybe also spot a squirrel or even a roe deer and explore nature in their very individual way. Many montain huts also have little playgrounds and animals that the kids can play with.
Some of the paths can be walked on with a pram. Moreover, there are also tracks made especially for the kids, like for example the “Pfeifer Huisile Weg” in Ratschings – the figure is from a saga that took place in the Ratschings valley. The view from the mountain peaks – far over many parts of the country – is breathtaking. With the activecard, all buses in all parts of South Tyrol are free!
