After a quick exploration of Brunico and checking out the town’s wonderfully helpful 24/7 (fully automated) information centre, we set off in search of castles, mountains, and whatever else we could find.
We climbed up the hill along the well trod track to the Schlossbruecke Ponte Castella, a castle which overlooks the town of Brunico and towers above the quaint Rain Church of St Katharina.
Then soon we were on our way towards the Dolomite Range and the Tre Cime di Lavaredo. The Dolomites are a jagged ridge of mountains which in some places strut up to over 2000 metres high and are home to a variety of flora and fauna plus some stunning scenery!
We end the day with sunset near the village of Voels where we stayed at the Steffi Apartments which offered self catering rooms at extremely reasonable rates and a super host - Steffi herself!
Sunset near Voels with the rock formations of Hammerwand at 2128 metres part of the Schlern Sciliar in the Naturpark Schlern or Parco Naturale dello Sciliar, Italy, South Tirol, Sued Tirol, Europe, Europe 2006.
