Intensely flavoured aromatic cheeses from the Laces-Martello holiday area The high mountain environment of the Venosta Valley has always been associated with mountain pastures and dairies. Since medieval times, butter and cheese have been produced in the mountain pastures. Even today, dairy products such as natural butter, yoghurt, cottage cheese and cream are still made there, particulary alpine cheese and local specialities such as "Graukas".

On the ridge between the "Weißwand" and the "Laaserspitze" stands the peace stele by Jürgen Prigl made of marble di Lasa.

Over time, the stream Gaiderbach has cut deeply into the porphyry rock and formed a narrow, distinctive gorge with waterfalls. The gorge presents itself simply fascinating and breathtaking: the mossy rock faces, the power of the water, the species-rich vegetation (including ferns and various species of orchids) form an undisturbed interplay of nature.

In the summer the lake of Braies reflects every colour. In the winter it is covers of ice and snow. Both as in the summer and winther it is the trail head of hikes, skitouren, snowshoe hikes and walks. Also nordic-walker are going to have walks in this territories. And everyone who likes to go to the limits of one's capacity can go to one of the three climbing crag.

With the opening in september 2004 the alpine dairy Three Peaks offers for the first time the possibility to visit the production of cheese and dairy processing. After taking a view on the history and development of cheesemaking in the museum the production can be visited on a guided tour.

Thermal Baths Although the use of the thermal springs that source here certainly dates back to Medieval times, the traces of the earliest thermal spa establishment only dates back to the 16th century. In 1856, the sanatorium of Dr. Johann Scheiber was built. The sanatorium was transformed into the Grand Hotel Wildbad at the start of the previous century. In 1939 the imposing building was put for auction and abandoned for a long time. Chapel of San Salvatore at the Thermal Springs in Alta Pusteria This Chapel, regularly inhabited by a religious hermit until 1786, was consecrated in 1594. A small sanctuary had already been in place before this date. The altar most probably dates back to the 8th century. The area was probably even an area of worship from a pre-Christian age. Highest point: 1333 m Accesible only by foot, aproximately 45 minutes from Innichen / San Candido

The "Museum for the Ortles Region" is an outpouring of passion and love of the Ortler region; it is a place where people are reminded of their roots and where the lives of both the great and the lesser pioneers of this part of the country are celebrated. A stroll through the history and the culture of the Ortles region, together with a special exhibition commemorating the 1915-1918 World War and also a rare and beautiful collection of minerals from the area. The museum will transport you back through 100 years of tourism in the Ortles region with its Alpine refuges, its sponsors and its pioneers from the history of this Alpine village at the foot of the Ortler. The greater part of the work of setting up these displays was carried out and financed by volunteers from the local Association and in particular by Konrad Knoll, who had undertaken the laborious task of finding, sorting and repairing many of the exhibits where necessary and who had also invested a considerable amount of his own money in the venture. Categories: culture, War, Contemporary history open year-round daily 9 am - 7 pm

The museum of the 1st World War is situated on the top of the mountain of the Monte Piano. From the top there is a beatiful view of the surrounding mountains, with the Three Peaks.

Since the border between Italy and the Habsburg monarchy Austria-Hungary ran through the middle of Monte Piana, both sides wanted to hold this strategically important mountain. What followed was a bloody war of position that lasted two years and ultimately failed to bring about a decisive turning point.                 

The small waterfall is like a green oasis at Monte Sole mountain in Silandro/Schlanders, below Schlandersberg Castle.

The so-called "Vorbichl" extends for about 2 km on the eastern edge of the "Tisner Mittelgebirge" and forms with its steeply sloping rock wall a natural barrier to the back settlement area against the Adige Valley.

The Artists' Association has been active in the Province of Bolzano since 1922, first under the name of S.I.A.B.A. (Italian Union of Fine Arts Artists) and later as F.I.D.A. (Italian federation of artists). In 1985 the Association drew up a new statute and took its current name. The aim of the Association is to coach and bring together artists from the three language groups operating in the Province. It is a non-profit organisation and carries out its activities thanks to the commitment of its members who enable the realisation of the various activities through their voluntary work.

It represents established artists and new talents through publishing activities, organising events and using internet as a means of information and communication.
The Artists' Association is also involved in the formation of art enthusiasts for whom it organises image education courses, especially in oil painting, watercolour, graphics, drawing and experimental painting. The teaching staff is made up of artists almost all of whom were trained at Fine Arts Academies. During the year they also offer visits to the most important exhibitions and art fairs.

The museum "Badhaus" on Zufall next to Rifugio Nino Corsi once served as a bathhouse for soldiers during the First World War. Every 4 weeks, the Cevedale front soldiers came to the bathhouse to delouse and wash themselves. 

Until 2020, the building stood empty, but now the bathhouse has been restored as faithfully as possible to its original state and a unique museum has been built.

This monument dedicated to Merano’s most illustrious guest was erected in 1903; it is located along the verdant Summer Promenade near the Post Office Bridge. The beloved Austrian empress’s frequent visits to Merano boosted the city’s prestige and contributed greatly to its reputation as a spa resort.

1991 Alexander Schwabl found during cleanup in the basement a few pieces of equipment from the Second World War. He decided to keep these things in order to preserve them from decay and thus from oblivion. Soon, other findings from other basements, attics and storage rooms were added.
