Valle Isarco

The Eisack Valley awaits you in South Tyrol, nestled among the enchanting Dolomites, for a holiday full of excitement.

Here, nature puts on a show in every season, but winter is particularly evocative.

Dressed in white, it invites you to enjoy the sun and fresh air, ski on perfectly groomed slopes, follow fascinating cross-country skiing trails, and go on fantastic snowshoe hikes in the silence of the woods.

If, on the other hand, you want to spend your days in pure relaxation, there are plenty of excellent hotels with wellness centres capable of restoring your body and spirit.

Finally, if you love culture, Bressanone, Varna, Chiusa and Vipiteno will amaze you with their historical and artistic treasures.

HOTEL BAD DREIKIRCHEN

A MAGICAL, TIMELESS HOTEL WHERE YOU CAN ENJOY MOMENTS OF SERENE TRANQUILLITY

Sigmund Freud wrote of this hotel: ‘It was adorably secluded: mountains, woods, flowers, water... and no hubbub of people... and how good the dinner was’. A natural paradise accessible on foot or by off-road taxi. Built in the 14th century and run by the Wodenegg family for 200 years, this residence boasts unique attractions: the library, the music room with its grand piano, the large dining room, the small Stube, the sun-kissed veranda and the sunny space under the majestic chestnut tree. The view is splendid, embracing medieval Chiusa, the Monastery of Sabiona, the Odle, the Sella Massif and the Sasso Lungo. Over the centuries, some things have changed, while others have retained their charm, such as the centuries-old wood, the rustic furnishings and the intimate and enveloping atmosphere. The 26 rooms, each one different from the other, are all original, minimalist, made of Swiss pine and, importantly, without TV or telephone. There is no need for them here, where silence and tranquillity reign supreme.

Tradition und Natur pur: Die Originale LATSCHENÖLBRENNEREI BARBIAN
