Multi-Facetted: The Natural Landscapes and Alpine Meadows
The range of natural splendor you can experience in this multi-facetted region can hardly be matched anywhere else in South Tyrol.
The bike path will take you by the valley floor, and is ideal for extended bike tours and walks.
Barbian/Barbiano is situated on the mid-altitude ridge of the Eisack Valley / Val d'Isarco. Its sunny clime and magnificent landscapes are just the thing for lengthy hikes along the Chestnut Tree Trail to visit castles, churches, and monasteries.
To the south, the
Barbian/Barbiano Meadow and the Villanders/Villandro Meadow with the
Rittner Horn / Corno di Renon complete this hiker's paradise. The Villanders/Villandro Meadow is the second-largest high-altitude meadow of South Tyrol. Verdant fields, moors, lakes, and rounded mountaintops reach up to 2,500 meters above sea-level. This hiker's paradise boasts many Alpine huts open the whole year through. From the Rittner Horn / Corno di Renon, you can enjoy perhaps the most awe-inspiring panoramic view in South Tyrol: The Dolomites, die Sarantine Alps, the Ziller Valley to the north. An incomparably beautiful Alpine world lies at your feet.
To the north, the Latzfons Meadow and Lake Radl and the Alpine hut of the same name round out our multi-facetted vacation region.
