Set out. Escape the daily grind. Get to know yourself better.

 

A great way to start your holiday in Racines: Starting at the back of the hotel, our educational nature trail leads you into the wood and from there, through the trees, offers a wonderful view of the surrounding mountains. Along the way, various fitness stations await you, made of wood from our forest. By simple means, you will be helped to develop your body awareness, balance and energy.

 

Incidentally, some of the stations are truly Instagram-worthy, such as the vantage point with its fabulous view or our 'Mama Swing', a large seesaw-wellness swing set among fragrant trees in the silence of nature. Pure relaxation!

Rafting in Vipiteno
