You will be in the Larch valley of South Tyrol, a hiker’s and mountaineer’s paradise, in the middle of the Ötztal Alps, surrounded by 3000 m peaks with their glaciers, mountain lakes, the oldest mountain inns in the Alps and their mountain pastures, and stunning meadows with grazing animals.
The fauna and flora here is incredibly diverse because the valley stretches from an altitude of 600 m right up to about 3800 m.

South Tyrol offers a wide variety of sports such as hiking, mountaineering, zip wiring, biking, paragliding, swimming, archery, horse riding, taking a summer break, fleeing from the heat or simply doing absolutely nothing. Sports people from all over the world come to the Senales Valley to use
the excellent resources for altitude training, cycling, cross country skiing, biathlon, mountain climbing, athletics, canoeing, swimming, skiing and much more.

They relish the solitude in the small village of Karthaus, a former Carthusian Monastery, also referred to as the “place of silence”. The entire Valley offers most diverse types of culture, from Juval Castle where Reinhold Messner lives at the entrance to the valley, to the site at the end of the valley where Ötzi lay hidden and preserved by the eternal ice.
