Hotels in Valle Aurina, Italy
Valle Aurina is a high Alpine valley in South Tyrol, Italy, with a cool mountain climate-summers average 70°F (21°C) and winters drop to 20°F (-6°C). It's famous for the Speikboden and Klausberg ski areas, offering 115 km of slopes and snowshoe trails, while in summer you can hike to the 10,000-foot (3,050-meter) Weißbach waterfall or bike along the Aurino River. For a unique experience, visit the Reinbach Waterfalls in spring when snowmelt creates the most dramatic flows, or ride the cable car up to the 8,000-foot (2,440-meter) peak at Monte Sommo for sweeping views of the Zillertal Alps.
