For lovers of nature and lakes

At the foot of the giant imposing rocks, rising 3000 metres above, is the idyllic Lake Antholz. This lake is as magical as the more famous nearby Lake Braies, but is certainly quieter. An educational nature trail winds around the lake. An unmissable highlight: the large enclosure with roe deer, deer, even dwarf goats.

For lovers of mountain hikes

Numerous paths that allow you to discover the valley depart directly from the hotel. Learn about the specific features of your holiday destination by leaving for the long or short Rasen-Antholz countryside trail, or explore the nature reserve’s habitat, the mountain cabins all around and enjoy the magnificent view from the "Dolomitenblickrunde", the trail with the view of the Dolomites. More ambitious climbers can ascend from Rasen up theHochgall and the Rieserferner Group, for a rewarding dual-peaks experience.

For mountain bikers and amateur cyclists

To discover the Antholz valley by mountain bike, in order to recognise its great variety: the broad valleys and the mountain pastures on one hand, and on the other the challenging ascents and descents of the Rieserferner-Ahrn Nature Park and the beauty of the Staller Saddle. Great news: the Niederrasen MTB area with 3 downhill variants and a kid-friendly pumptrack.

And if that isn’t enough ...

Summer, especially, is a time of great joy for children of all ages: the "Wasserwaldile" water adventure park in Antholz is perfect for developing creativity, skills and concentration. All while playing and having fun!

Does the Würzjoch mean anything to you? An unmissable gem. Be it by mountain bike, e-bike, motorbike or by car. The most beautiful mountains tower before you, the fresh air will revitalise you and the Peitlerkofel has no reason to envy the Matterhorn.
