Spend the most beautiful season of the year in our 3-star hotel in South Tyrol!
The Summer season feels right at home in our alpine region Gitschberg-Val Giovo. The natural landscape is truly varied and has so many charming features that just one vacation with us will not be enough to really experience them all. The picturesque Valles Valley or Valler Valley, the sublime Fundres Mountains, the Pusteria Valley in the south and the adjoining Rodengo / Luson Alps are popular areas for hikers, mountaineers, mountain bikers and holidaymakers who simply follow their senses and wish to experience something new every day. The alpine plateau of Maranza with its lush pastures and historic relics, many rustic huts and graceful forests characterize the image of a holiday region where the most varied demands are met. And our 3-star South Tyrol hotel is the ideal place to make all this accessible to you at a short distance.
A truly varied holiday region
The Fundres Mountains in the north with the peak Wilde Kreuzspitze (3,132 m) and the lake Wilder See are an invitation to every hiker and mountaineer. However, there are also hiking trails starting right outside the door of our 3-star South Tyrol hotel, where you may explore Valles and the surrounding area. In mountain boots or on a mountain bike, on the back of a horse or on the tennis court, on top of one of the many peaks or in the valley basin – you may enjoy a rich selection of opportunities for an active vacation. Of course, you may also take a trip to the Isarco Valley and visit the interesting cities of Bressanone or Bolzano, follow the Pusteria Valley in the other direction and visit Brunico. We are happy to give you tips on how to make the most of your holiday in South Tyrol. And if you really wish to relax after your walks, then why not take a sunbath on our lush lawn by the house or use our spa area?

The hiking paradise Gitschberg-Jochtal
The alpine region Gitschberg-Val Giovo is crisscrossed by a fabulous network of hiking trails. You may choose those tours that best suit your individual needs. Do you like panoramic tours, remote mountain worlds or out-of-the-way alpine meadows with farming huts offering South Tyrolean delicacies? All this is within reach from the hotel on foot or after a short drive. To give you a taste of hiking in South Tyrol already today, here’s an overview of three popular hiking tours in the region:
Circular Trail Ritzail-Val Giovo (273 altitude meters / 2.30 hrs.) - Easy
Alpine tour to Paechenjöchl and to Fane Alm (1.012 altitude meters / 4.15 hrs.) - Medium
Take the Val Giovo gondola lift from Valles to the mountain station, hike into the Valler Joch and from there on to the Rotensteinalm. The secured “White Bridge” leads to the Paechenjöchl (2,201 m), where you have a wonderful panoramic view. Across the Ochsenalm you then descend to the Fane Alm (1,739 m). The fascinating museum village from the 15th century offers lasting impressions for the entire family. Later you will reach the valley station via the Ochsensprung and Serpentinen. Around the Fane Alm there are other interesting trails, such as the Milchsteig (“Milk Trail”), which at various stations tells you everything about milk.
Lake Seefeldsee (825 altitude meters / 6 hrs.) - Medium
From Maranza you walk through the forest in the direction of Altfasstal to the lodge Großberghütte, continue across the valley and idyllic alpine flower meadows to the lodges Pranterstadlhütte and Wiesenhütte in the valley. From there, you may reach the lake Großer Seefeldsee (2,271 m) – a natural wonder in our region – in a one-hour climb. The huts along the way invite you to take a break. Return on the same itinerary.
This is just a small selection of an abundance of walking tours for every requirement and every level of difficulty. We will be happy inform you about other beautiful paths and trails throughout the alpine region.
