Why you can travel to the Ahrntal Valley responsibly

The Ahrntal Valley and Sand in Taufers are known for their towering mountains, abundant water, and unique places of spiritual energy.

A mindful Ahrntal Valley

The Ahrntal Valley is naturally close to nature and unspoiled: with over 80 peaks over 3,000 meters, its densely forested slopes, its abundance of water, and the pure air. It goes without saying that we want to preserve this retreat—free from through traffic—in all its beauty and authenticity. We strive to reduce CO2 emissions wherever possible. We aim to raise awareness among locals and our guests about the importance of active participation and to remain sensitive to issues that combat climate change.

We warmly invite you to experience the uniqueness of our mountain world, and discover the local culture: whether by staying in sustainably certified accommodations or purchasing regional food products.
