This long, unspoilt high Alpine valley features many little hamlets and clusters of farms.
The valley is lined by meadows and mountain pastures, and leads straight to the unique and striking backdrop of the Ötztaler Alpen with the majestic Weisskugel glacier (3,739 m).
At the Reschenpass / Passo di Resia you can enjoy easy strolls along peaceful Alpine pastures or engage in physically challenging sports. 200 km of marked hiking trails, 350 km of bike trails, one ship line, and much, much more will take you to exciting places of interest. And wherever you go, you'll be able to experience Mother Nature in all her glory.

Environment plus

Even the apartments Altana and Gronda have originally been built with all natural materials several years ago; but with the strawbale house, which was constructed in nine months over the winter of 2007/2008, we aimed at making the closeness to nature perceptible in an even higher standard of modern conveniances. Natural materials will touch your senses, and a magnificent room climate will be the caretaker of your wellbeing.
