Ski holidays Velturno – On the sun terrace of Eisack Valley!
Velturno
8 km South of Bressanone, located on a sunny mountain street of the Eisacktal, or Eisack Valley/Val d'Isarco, lies the little place Velturno (German: "Feldthurns"). As early as the Middle Ages was this highly appreciated place for the prince-bishops to retreat due to its attractive quietness and its sunny position on the slopes, where they built the Renaissance style Castle Velthurns. Today, exciting guided tours through the castle invite visitors for an excursion. Velturno's town centre is dotted with quaint farmer's houses and features the Gothic style church St. Laurentius. The inhabitants of this village are very traditional and thus stick to old customs such as "Törggelen", whose culinary delights can be tasted as early as the late autumn, as the successful grape harvest is celebrated with a delicious dish with young wine, roasted chestnuts and partly also hearty meals.Active winter sports fans have a wide range of activities available with access to the ski area Plose in close-by St. Andrä or several hiking trails all around Velturno. Whether you are looking for delights for your palate, body or soul, the sunny Velturno offers all-round relaxation for young and old.
Valle Isarco
The Valle Isarco lies in the heart of South Tyrol and stretches from Brennero to the mouth of the Adige near Bolzano. Dominated by the River Isarco, the valley impresses with its varied landscape at any time of year. In winter, 95 kilometres of pistes of varying degrees of difficulty invite you to ski. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, there is something for everyone here. The beautiful wide pistes are very suitable for families with children. Thanks to its special location, the region is considered to be very sunny and snow-sure. There are also many opportunities to spend a varied day away from the piste.Travel Velturno
