Treasures by the wayside

Herb hike from Vöran to Hafling

Many edible herbs grow along our hiking trails, but it is not always easy to recognise them. Your guide Gerlinde teaches you which wild herbs are edible. On this hike, you not only gather herbs, but also use them to process a tasty herb ricotta cheese at the Lenkhof farm (dairy farm), including tasting. Besides telling you about herbs, Gerlinde takes you to fantastic viewpoints and gives you an insight into the mountain world in South Tyrol.
