Embark on the Völser Aicha Höfeweg Farm Trail from Prösels Castle, a moderate hike that guides you through ancient farmsteads, vineyards, and chestnut groves. This route covers 6.6 miles (10.6 km) with an elevation gain of 1338 feet (408 metres), typically taking around 3 hours and 18 minutes to complete. You will experience pastoral scenery, mountain forests, and fruit-covered slopes, with the gentle sway of the suspension bridge over Rio Laus adding to the adventure.
To begin your hike, head to Prösels Castle, which serves as the convenient starting point for this journey. Public transport makes access straightforward; you can take Bus 176 from Seis and Völs directly to the castle and back. Consider starting your hike in the morning to enjoy the tranquil atmosphere and make the most of your day exploring the historic surroundings.
This trail offers a unique glimpse into South Tyrolean heritage, winding past farmsteads that date back to Ancient Rome and showcasing a living museum of mountain farming culture. You will encounter landmarks like the 13th-century Pulverturm tower, offering views toward the Schlern massif, and the Chiesa di San Nicolò. The route also passes working farms where you can sample local products, connecting you with the region's rich traditions.
