Hirzer and our hotel owner gladly accompanies guests for a walk
in the mountains with a delicious snack along the way.
We also organise guided walks with a qualified, experienced
guide for hotel guests from June to October as well as a once
weekly walk through the wonderful nature of the nearby Tessa Natural
Park.
Really thrilling – the Hirzer
Panoramic Cable Car takes you up to over 2,000 metres
in a couple of minutes.
Walks
in the Passiria valley
Backpack
ready and ... off you go for an easy stroll or more athletic
trek along safe, well-marked paths through the flower-covered
valley pastures - past bubbling brooks, fast-flowing mountain
streams, idyllic Alpine lakes ... and then
a stop at a mountain farmstead for a delicious snack and something
to drink. This is what holidays are made of! A relaxing walk
along the Waalwege, shady little paths which meander along
the farmers’ water irrigation
channels,
and through the perfumed apple orchards or a hike up into
the fascinating world of the Tessa Natural Park with its mountain
rhododendrons and Alpine flowers in bloom.
Rudi,
the hotel owner, is more than happy to accompany
guests and show them the splendid natural beauty
of this very special part of the country.
