‘Those spending time in the forest smell of foliage and honeycomb, of berries and damp skin, with their evening meal consisting of sunsets. A nightingale can be heard singing through the air.‘ The Austria writer, H.C. Artmann, was able to convey the nature of the forest in few words. Yet for those going into the woods, and daring to explore the mountains, yet more emotion awaits.
Nothing smells as spicy as the herbs on dry meadows. The sound of cowbells is carried by the refreshing breeze. Feet search for foothold amongst rocks and tree roots. The summit cross is the goal, and the views the rewards. 360 degrees of mountain. Clouds scurrying by, craggy rocks, a horizon made up of peaks.
ALPIANA – green luxury Dolce Vita Hotel lies on its upland plateau, surrounded by graceful mountain peaks. Wonderful hiking areas may be reached in no time from Völlan.
