1. Gfasebach – forest playground in the shade below the bathing pond
Deep in the forest, the Gfasebach stream rushes quietly. Along its shady bed beneath dense spruce canopies, the air feels noticeably cooler even on hot July days. Perfect for a relaxing time with the kids, where all you hear is the steady murmur of the water.
2. The refreshing Flitzer Waterfall
On hot summer days, the Flitzer Waterfall is a true natural gem and the perfect spot to cool off. The clear, cool water, the fresh forest air, and the soothing sound of the falls create a welcome break from everyday life. The waterfall is reached via a short hike and invites you to pause for a moment, dip your feet in the cold water, or simply enjoy the power of nature.
3. Kaserbachtal – old craftsmen's quarter and nature trail
In the cool forest below Luson lies a place of history and quiet. The shady paths around the old craftsmen's quarter are surrounded by dense mixed forest. Here, the green canopy and conifer woods filter the sunlight, creating a pleasantly muted, almost reverent atmosphere.
4. To the Teis Weather Cross, past the old trenches
The walk to the Teis Weather Cross follows the botanical nature trail. Numerous information panels explain the vegetation, trees, shrubs, and flowers of the area. Along the way, shady clearings repeatedly invite a rest. Once you reach the Weather Cross, a fresh, invigorating breeze usually blows as you take in sweeping views across the Isarco Valley and the surrounding mountains. The historic trenches below the Weather Cross tell of the region's turbulent past.
5. The secluded oasis of calm at the Luson stream
Away from the well-known excursion spots, the Luson stream winds through wooded stretches all the way up to the foot of the Dolomites / Peitlerkofel. Find one of the flat, tree-lined sections along its banks. The ice-cold mountain water is perfect for a refreshing Kneipp experience in the shade of the alders and willows.
