Your family holiday in South Tyrol

Experiences for young & old in the Dolomites Region Seiser Alm

Numerous themed trails for families and pram-friendly hiking routes make exploring easy for all ages. Even on holiday with grandparents, everyone gets their share of fun. On the playgrounds you can romp around together, show your skills at mini-golf and work off plenty of energy while swimming, biking or riding.

There are also many events for little and big adventurers in the Dolomites region Seiser Alm, including the Dolomiti Ranger programme and the Farm Experiences, as well as the events at Castle Prösels featuring children’s tours and exciting escape games. At the Schlern-Rosengarten Nature Park Visitor Centre, you can explore the interactive models together and learn interesting facts about the park, its plants and its animals.

Whether you stay in one of the holiday villages or up on the Seiser Alm – you can look forward to warm hospitality, good food and plenty of fun.

Insights into life & work on the farm

Do your children have lots of questions about farm life? Then let them be answered during your family holiday in the Dolomites region Seiser Alm. The various events within the Farm Experience programme offer a deep insight into everyday rural life. And of course, there is plenty of time for all your questions: How are a horse’s hooves shod? And how do fresh milk and cream become cheese, butter and more?

The events are offered in German and Italian only.

Mindful animal encounters at the Farm Lafogl

In St. Oswald near Kastelruth, Tabea lives with her family and many rescued animals at the Farm Lafogl. Guinea pigs, rabbits, cats, dogs, goats, sheep, horses, and ponies have all found a loving home here. The farm is not a petting zoo, but a place for mindful encounters. Tabea teaches children, families, locals, and visitors a respectful way to interact with animals – calm, conscious, and always accompanied. At the Farm Lafogl, visitors can meet the animals on a guided farm tour, take walks in nature with goats and ponies, groom and briefly ride ponies and horses, and the little ones can gently connect with the animals during Mini-Tierzeit.

Witch Nix & her hiking booklet

Hello, I’m Witch Nix and I live in the Dolomites Region Seiser Alm. I love hiking up on the Seiser Alm and in the villages below Schlern and Rosengarten. I’ve already tested all the most exciting hikes for you and gathered them in my hiking booklet. And so that you don’t get bored while hiking, I’ve filled it with insider tips, stories, legends and riddles. So, pack your booklet into your backpack, slip into your hiking boots and off you go!
