IN THE DOLOMITES

Terento is the ideal starting point for hikes into the Pfunder Mountains or the Dolomites. High-altitude glacier hiking tours, mountain shelters at high altitudes, and fixed rope routes also offer the right options for the more experienced among us. And the view from the top across the peaks of the Dolomites is definitely worth all your trouble. But there are also plenty of mountain hiking tours for pleasure hikers as well. Those who prefer hiking alone can get information regarding destinations for their excursions and hiking tips from the Hotel & Spa Sonnenparadies. And those who prefer to hike in groups can join our weekly guided hiking tours.

The diverse mountain world offers many hiking opportunities, from gentle rambles to challenging mountain tours. Stunning views guaranteed.

CYCLING IN SOUTH TYROL

South Tyrol is not only a haven for hikers but also for cyclists and mountain bikers. Countless forest paths and mountain pastures offer mountain bikers divers and challenging tours in the mountains. Below in the valley on the bicycle paths of South Tyrol, pleasure cyclists can go on pleasant, easy, and relaxing bicycle tours.

PUSTER VALLEY GREENS

The nine golf courses in South Tyrol are among the most beautiful golf courses in Italy. The greens are well looked-after and meet the requirements of even the most passionate golfers. Tremendous golfing awaits visitors on the greens of these alpine mountains, surrounded by the breath-taking scenery of the South Tyrolian mountains. The greens in South Tyrol are also perfect for beginners who would like to discover golf for themselves during their holiday in South Tyrol.

The Open Country Course was designed and inserted carefully in this beautiful landscape, which consists partly of woods, open land as well as of wetland, by the two golf architects Alvise Rossi Fioravanti and Baldovino Dassù, winners of several European Tour Events. Brian Jorgensen and Dan Kain, shaper of international reputation, modelled the holes by every trick in the book and were able to bring to bear the whole beauty of the land.

SNOW-COVERED SOUTH TYROL

Terento is also blessed with many hours of sun in the winter, which makes winter hiking a true joy. The snow-covered landscape around Terento invites visitors to discover South Tyrol on foot. Whether on snowshoes, in winter boots, or on a toboggan – whatever you decide for yourself, the winter in South Tyrol is sure to enchant you.

Snowshoe hiking

Snowshoe hikers enjoy the same privilege as ski tourists. They decide on their route themselves and make their own trail through the fresh snow. From Terento, you have destinations and mountain peaks in all directions, away from the hustle and bustle of the pistes. This is where you can take a deep breath, become more aware of yourself and your surroundings, and enjoy the stunning panoramas.
Once a week we accompany our guests on guided snowshoe hikes. You can rent snowshoes at our Hotel & Spa Sonnenparadies.

Winter hiking

Even in the winter, the prepared hiking trails allow for extended walks or hikes through the snowy landscape of South Tyrol. You can even take your toboggan with you on some of the hikes and enjoy a fun downhill toboggan run.

Tobogganing

Tobogganing is the perfect winter sport for all those winter grouches. Terento has several popular toboggan runs. Once you’ve arrived on the top, you’ll be rewarded with a hut with delicious food, and the panorama alone is worth all the trouble. Moonlight tobogganing in the dark of the night, when only the moon and headlamps show you the way to the hut, is a very special experience. As part of our winter activity programme, we also accompany our guests into the mountains for tobogganing.
