Hiking experiences in the Wipp and Eisack valleys

The adventure destination in the Ridnaun Valley

Our Gassenhof resort in Ridnaun provides the perfect balance between sporting activities and cozy relaxation. The Becherhaus hike or a stop at the Teplitzer Hut are among the activities in South Tyrol that should not be missed on vacation. Another highlight of the Gassenhof in Ridnaun: the new Gassenloge – the best spot in town.

 

Hiking, mountaineering, climbing – the list of exciting activities in South Tyrol is endless. The Becherhaus hikes, the hike to the Aglsalm & the Gilfenklamm gorge – Reifenegg ruins are just a few of the many highlights of your hiking vacation in South Tyrol in one of the best hiking hotels in the Alps.

The best spot in Tol

Feel good in winter

Winter hiking to the Wurzeralm mountain hut, getting a taste of biathlon at the local biathlon stadium, or enjoying lively days of skiing in the Ratschings-Jaufen ski area—there's no room for boredom in Tol. And afterwards? Our hotel in Ratschings has it all: the Mount Becher gourmet hotel with its own brewery, distillery, roastery, and cheese dairy takes enjoyment to the next level. Surrounded by the mighty peaks of the Stubai Alps, with the striking Sonnklarspitze (2,461 m) in view, the Ridnauntal valley and our hotel in Ratschings are your springboard for a genuine winter experience. Whether cross-country skiing, winter hiking, or snowshoeing—in winter in the Eisack Valley, you will feel pure energy and find the perfect balance in the quiet nature.
