Autumn in Val Gardena

Golden larches, clear days and quiet trails

Autumn in Val Gardena brings golden larch forests, clear air and stable weather - ideal for hiking. Trails for every level start in Santa Cristina, from easy walks in the valley to long mountain tours, and the mountain huts serve regional dishes and new wine.

Hotel Touring is your base in the centre of Santa Cristina: after a day outdoors, warm up in the rooftop pool and sauna, then enjoy dinner from our kitchen, selected in the MICHELIN Guide.

The Impressive Color Display of the "Enrosadira" - Burning Dolomites

Captivating Colors of the Dolomites

The term "Enrosadira" refers to the typical coloration of the pale mountains in the Dolomites in the evening. They then glow from pink to purple. This natural spectacle is breathtaking all year round, but it is particularly beautiful and outstanding in autumn. From the beginning of September, the needles of the larches change from green to yellow, then they glow orange, red, and brown. The special and deep sunlight in September makes the Dolomites appear wonderfully red. The legendary "pale mountains" transform into glowing rocks: the edges, peaks, and towers are bathed in magical sunlight, framed by a crystal-clear and radiant blue sky, typical of the stable fair weather in autumn. During this time, photographers and nature observers like to visit the quiet and contemplative Dolomite valley - the color spectrum truly amazes visitors.
