Vacation in the Tauferer Ahrntal

The inhabitants of the Tauferer Ahrntal area little bit special: like the other locals from the Pustertal, they are known for their efficiency and sunny disposition. However, the dialect spoken in this valley is more earthy than elsewhere and is popular in the whole of the region.
You will notice that the locals‘ attachment to the pleasant valley, reaching up to the town of Taufers and flanked by the 3000 metre high Zillertal Alps is just as evident as their willingness to welcome the new.

This contrast is what makes the Tauferer Ahrntal so interesting: nowhere else in South Tyrol are there so many possibilities for extreme sports enthusiasts. What about going white water rafting, hydro speeding, paragliding, hanggliding, horse riding, mountain biking, or climbing?
Those looking for something more leisurely can look around pretty villages and the busy town of Sand in Taufers or go for a spin up into the mountains of the Pustertal.
