Wherever else could you go on a hot day apart from to the Ice Holes between Kaltern and Eppan?

Air passes through the splits in the porphyrite rocks and is cooled down on the way.This fresh breeze can be felt up to a height of 5 m. Due to this enormous difference in temperature, there are over 600 different plants growing in this area. A natural wonder!

Hiking

 

The hike to the ice holes is especially popular for families, because children can have a great time and the trail is not classified as too difficult or long.

The path to the ice holes leads through forests and vines and past a medieval tower.
