This walk through interesting landscapes at the entrance to the Pustertal Valley, leads through the upper boundary of orchards and vineyards, where on the sunny slopes of Rio di Pusteria there are cultivation trials of apple trees and grape varieties. A gem worth seeing is the “Stöcklvater” chapel, a place of pilgrimage in Rio di Pusteria, as well as the renowned “Urlaubstöckl”.
