Summer holiday in the Valle Aurina with hiking and MTB

What summer in the mountains feels like

Time to cool off at last! Between meadows, mountains and fresh alpine air, summer in Valle Aurina offers countless ways to enjoy time outdoors. Whether active and sporty or slow and relaxed – everything is close by and easy to combine.

Exploring Valle Aurina on foot

More than 70 three-thousand-metre peaks, countless alpine meadows and endless walking trails: that is what makes Valle Aurina such a wonderful hiking destination. Every day can be different – maybe an easy walk through the valley or a longer mountain tour. The Rieserferner-Ahrn Nature Park stretches across large parts of the valley and offers countless varied routes and landscapes. Riobianco and the Zillertal Alps also offer a huge variety of alpine huts and mountain summits. Every hike, every day feels a little different.


Getting higher on two wheels

From the farm, things begin gently enough. Then the trails become narrower and the climbs steeper: along forest tracks, through woodland and up towards the alpine pastures. Sometimes steady, sometimes more challenging.
At Maurlechnhof, you can safely store your bikes and recharge them if needed. And if you are looking for the perfect route for the next day, your hosts will always have the best recommendations.
