Nature
Spring Valley
Montiggl | Eppan
Position:
The Spring Valley is located between lake Kaltern and lake Montiggl.
Nowhere else in South Tyrol do so many spring knot flowers bloom in spring as in the marshy hollow of this valley. Beautiful stands of alder line the moor water from the two lakes. Violets and the purple to red corollas of the lungwort appear in the hedgerows. In the Forstgarten area, the green lizard can be spotted as early as March in sunny weather. A valley that rightly deserves its name.
Walks:
The hike in the Spring Valley is very easy and suitable for families with children. This hike is highly recommended in March or spring months, as the valley is already in full bloom very early thanks to the mild climate. Above all, the white "Märzenbecher", in South Tyrol also called "big snowdrops", are present in large numbers. Enjoy the nature and please note: Picking is not allowed!
