Velturno/Feldthurns

Serene and sunny

A truly unique location: the villages of S.Pietro Mezzomonte/Schrambach and Snodres/Schnauders, nestled in the middle of meadows and fields, between rustling broadleaf trees and huge chestnut trees, cling to the sunny slope with the old Velturno farmsteads halfway up the ridge. 

Enjoy the magnificent view over the Odle/Geisler and the old villages clinging to the gentle hillside slopes. This scenic wonderland that implores you to take trips all the way up to the crashing waterfall above S. Pietro Mezzomonte or even higher, up to the local mountain, Monte del Pascolo/Königsanger (2436 m).

In fall, you are in the heart of the most beautiful area to visit the farmsteads for the south tyrolean tradition "Törggelen": grape must and new wine, speck, roasted chestnuts and a wonderful atmosphere. Instead, in winter, you can enjoy skiing and cross-country skiing.

TIP: Take a walk on the "Keschtnweg", the chestnut trail.
