hiking holiday in
South Tyrol…

…always a good idea!

Our guesthouse is your perfect choice for your hiking vacation in South Tyrol. Right nearby, you’ll find a variety of itineraries – from easy to demanding – on a network of approximately 500 kilometres of marked hiking trails amidst a breathtaking mountain panorama. The trails lead you across lush meadows and alpine pastures, to crystal-clear mountain lakes, and to quaint mountain huts. The summit crosses in Wipptal are also waiting to be conquered. Ambitious mountaineers may look forward to challenging tours – for example, to the alpine peaks Wilde Kreuzspitze (3,135m), Tribulaun (3,097m), or Becherhaus (3,195m), South Tyrol’s highest mountain lodge.

Even for those who are less fit and for families, a hiking holiday in Freienfeld/Sterzing offers exciting opportunities: For example, the Freienfeld Castles Hike on the Two Castles Circular Trail via the Trenser Altitude Trail or the truly relaxing Freienfeld Bee Trail, which over a length of 1.7 kilometres provides interesting and fun information about the local bee world.

…on leisurely or exciting trails

In summer, our guesthouse offers the perfect starting point for cyclists. The Pension Wiesenhof is located right next to a bicycle trail, so you may set off on various bike tours starting right from our doorstep. We also offer secure storage for your bicycles.

All those who aren’t necessarily looking for a major challenge on their bike, but rather enjoy leisurely pedalling with beautiful views, may take relaxed tours on the valley cycle paths – or explore the Wipptal on e-bike tours.

Plenty of altitude difference and panoramic views await sporty bikers at the alpine passes Penser Joch, Jaufenpass, or on the route to Ritzail.
