Summer in the Dolomites: hiking, biking, climbing & mountain tours

Air. Light. Ease:
your summer in Villa Ottone

Summer here in Villa Ottone takes place mainly outdoors. Step outside, breathe in the scent of hay, and follow trails that invite curiosity.
Between mountains and rivers, alpine pastures and villages, Val Pusteria reveals its active yet relaxed side.
On foot, by bike or simply in our garden: you decide what your summer day looks like.
And in the evening? Maybe an aperitivo in the open air. Maybe just feet up – and eyes on the horizon. What are you waiting for?

  • Would you like to cool off? At the natural bathing lake in Gais or at the Cascade in Campo Tures you can swim wonderfully and let your thoughts drift away.
  • A bit of adventure? Rafting on the Aurino puts you at the heart of the action – and if you’re lucky, you’ll get nicely soaked.
  • Reaching for the heights? More than 80, 3,000-metre peaks around Valle Aurina offer impressive mountain tours – and via ferrata for experienced climbers.
  • Can you hit your targets? At the archery course in Caminata, the trail winds through the forest – exciting for young and old.
  • Finding strength and calm? Outdoor yoga or a round of Nordic walking on gentle trails clears the mind.
