Guided "Törggele"-hike: discovering an ancient South Tyrolean tradition

Autumn hike in Schenna around the theme of wine and the old South Tyrolean tradition "Törggelen".

ONLY IN GERMAN!

From the beginning of October, at the end of the grape harvest, until the beginning of the pre-Christmas season is "Törggelezeit". After leisurely walks through the golden autumn landscape, guests and South Tyroleans enjoy the products of the harvest, especially chestnuts and new wine (Sußer). On this week's hike we visit the Zmailerhof.

With the bus we go from the center in Schenna up to the restaurant Pichler and then hike along the Ratscheidweg to the Zmailerhof and after the cozy stop further to St. Georgen. From the starting point you can freely decide whether to return by foot or by bus.
A Törggelemenü and hearty music may not be missing of course!
