Earth pyramids of Plata/Platten

Small turrets, middle and high columns rise up in the air like lots of teeth.

Klammbach waterfall

A natural phenomenon can hardly enchant people with different origins so much, as water, falling from great heights upon the stones, does.

The imposing mountain range, partially consisting of high glacial peaks, overtops the South Tyrolean territory and embellishes a region of another emblem.

Val Casies/Gsieser Tal Valley
