🛡️ A piece of history in the heart of the Alps! 🌄

Behind Gampen Pass, on Deutschnonsberg, lies one of the largest bunker complexes in South Tyrol – the Gampen Bunker. This fascinating structure was built during World War II and now serves as a museum within the protective wall. Here, you can dive deep into history while also learning about the unique geological and cultural features of this region. ⛏️🌍

🌄 SPRONSER LAKES ABOVE DORF TIROL
The hiking area around the Spronser Lakes Plateau

The colorful Spronser Lakes Plateau is located northwest of Dorf Tirol, in the middle of the Texel Group Nature Park, between 2,117 and 2,589 meters above sea level. The largest high-altitude lake plateau in the Eastern Alps consists of ten high-mountain lakes, which are undoubtedly among the most beautiful alpine lakes in the entire Alps. Some of the names – Langsee, Grünsee, Schwarzsee, and Schiefersee – reveal the size and the vibrant colors of the waters. 🌊💧

Not only the flora and fauna around the Spronser Lakes above Dorf Tirol is fascinating. An incredible spectacle awaits hikers as they see a group of chamois 🦌 running over the rocks and hear the whistles of marmots 🐾. At night, the starry sky 🌌 from up here is a unique show, which already captivated our ancient ancestors. Near the Oberkaser Hut, prehistoric rock carvings ⛏️ can be found, depicting the movement of the stars. 🌌
