Holiday apartment in Siusi between Schlern and Alpe di Siusi

The Schlern-Rosengarten Nature Park visitor centre is located directly in the centre of Siusi, about a two-minute walk from the bus station.

Construction of the parish church of the Holy Cross in Siusi began in 1937; it was consecrated in 1950.

Trails and landscapes for different types of holiday days

Around Siusi, there are the themed trails Gumperer Trail, Mushroom Trail, Geologists’ Trail, Oswald von Wolkenstein Trail and Geo Mile. The Oswald von Wolkenstein Trail has 15 play stations and begins at the valley station of the Alpe di Siusi cable car. Several themed trails thus offer different ways to include the surrounding area in your daily plans. A day on the Oswald von Wolkenstein Trail can be structured differently from a day focused on Hauenstein, Salegg and St. Vigil.

At Karlotten Kofel, the thermal properties of the lava rock and the exceptionally sunny location create surprisingly Mediterranean vegetation. Karlotten Kofel also offers views of the Schlern massif and seven church towers. The view of the seven church towers and the Schlern massif can be incorporated into your daily plans there.

Cultural history around Siusi

Hauenstein Castle Ruins were built in the 12th century. One of their owners was the minnesinger Oswald von Wolkenstein. Salegg Castle Ruins date from the 12th century and passed into the possession of the Wolkenstein dynasty in the 16th century. The church of St. Vigil was first mentioned in 1260. After being destroyed by a landslide and falling rocks in the 15th century, it was rebuilt. These historic destinations therefore bring together medieval construction dates, ownership history and reconstruction.

A different emphasis can be found at the Ratzes Kneipp facility. It is supplied with fresh spring water and offers Kneipp treatments in the foot-treading pool as well as in the arm and face pools. St. Vigil Seis Golf Course lies between Völs and Seis am Schlern at the foot of Schlern. You can therefore set a different focus for your day between water treatments and golf. At the Ratzes Kneipp facility, the water treatment can be divided between the foot-treading pool and the arm and face pools.

If you are planning a holiday apartment in Siusi, you can give these themes different weight according to your interests. The landscape around Schlern, play stations, churches, ruins, spring water and golf offer different points of focus for your planning. Anyone who wants to combine several themes in Siusi can include the playful trail as well as destinations of cultural and historical interest; those who enjoy varying daily rhythms can also discover Mediterranean vegetation, views and Kneipp treatments. The specific focus remains in your hands.
