DolomitesAlpe di Siusi - Sciliar.
There are regions on Earth which have been created by Nature with special goodwill; often it is pure chance that brings us to such a place, a place we'll never forget and always keep in our hearts."

The Alpe di Siusi is not only the epitome of hiking fun, but also a place where you can engage in the most varied of sports. From mountain-biking to paragliding, from lengthy forest strolls to adventurous mountain ascents. Local culinary specialties like “Speckmarende” (bacon-cake) and buttermilk will tempt your palate, while religious processions and outdoor concerts on balmy summer evenings will awaken more spiritual and cultural feelings. And if it gets too hot for you:” Water rats” and sunbathers can cool off at the outdoor swimming pool in Telfen.

The Sciliar Nature Park, the oldest of the seven Nature Parks of South Tyrol, amazes nature lovers and hikers with its untouched landscapes and diversity of flora and fauna. And its inhabitants, too, seem to still cherish old-fashioned traditions of hospitality and friendliness. So you might just get a spontaneous invitation to come and take part in the season’s harvest – after which you can cool off in the laghetto di Fiè.

In the Prösels Castle, the best-preserved and perhaps most famous castle in the region, you can view the private chambers of an ancient nobility. But it is also home to many a mysterious spot, like the Hauenstein ruins, Salegg and Aichach. You can relax to the plaintive notes of medieval and modern ballads, and enjoy the tasty treats which the kitchen and wine cellar have to offer. Or just for a moment to watch the horses contentedly grazing against a picturesque backdrop. In any event, you’re sure to find what you’re looking for.
