Around the tower of the sunken church

The villages of Resia/Reschen, Curon/Graun and San Valentino/St. Valentin are located along the old Roman imperial road, the Via Claudia Augusta, on the border between Italy, Austria and Switzerland. The unique location between different cultures has characterized the people and their country. The centre of the region is the drowned Romanesque tower that juts from lake Resia. The big spectacular lake attires enthusiasts of uncommon sports like kite surfers and snowkite surfers sand all those who like to spend their holidays by the water. The side valleys Vallelunga/Langtaufers and Roja/Rojen have hardly been exploited for touristic purposes and remain quiet resorts for holidaymakers in search of peace and unspoilt nature. In winter snow is guaranteed at elevations beyond 4,600ft/1,400m. 3 ski resorts, 2 countries, 1 ski pass, 117 km of runs, 25 cable cars and lifts, all incorporated into the “Skiparadies Reschenpass”.

The medieval town walls of Glorenza/Glurns, the smallest place in South Tyrol to bear the title of town, seven towers at Malles/Mals, the Churburg castle guarding the valley at Sluderno/Schluderns, and the Marienberg monastery gleaming white above Burgusio/Burgeis are just a few of the cultural gems which beckon here. Meadows, mountain farms and pretty hospitable villages testify to the area’s stubborn pride. The Rhaeto-romanic Grisons and the “Oberes Gericht” (Landeck area) in North Tyrol are close by, the shared past is evident everywhere.

The area offers plenty for nature lovers who prefer relaxing pursuits, for example shady mountainside trails beside old irrigation channels with spectacular views across to the glacier-clad summits in the Ortles massif. In winter the valleys of Mazia/Matsch, Slingia/Schlinig, Planol/Planeil and Tubre/Taufers in the Monastero/Müster Valley attract snowshoeing, Alpine ski touring and winter hiking enthusiasts. The Val Venosta/Vinschgau is the driest and sunniest valley in the entire Alpine region. Most popular among families is the sun-drenched ski resort of Watles.
