Bletterbach Gorge – the Grand Canyon of South Tyrol
Front-row seat at the UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites
Right on our doorstep lies the Bletterbach Gorge, designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
In the Grand Canyon of the South Tyrolean Dolomites, it is not only archaeologists who go in search of traces (May–October).
And Michlhaus guests pay no admission.
Marvel in awe.
UNESCO World Heritage Dolomites
Curtain up on a showcase of extraordinary natural beauty: the Dolomites, South Tyrol’s world-famous stone giants. Since 2009, nine areas have been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site – including the Bletterbach Gorge.
Geoparc Bletterbach Gorge
Discover rock formations and ancient strata in the Bletterbach Geopark. The visitor centre is the heart of the journey of discovery through millions of years of Earth’s history.
Dinosaur Trail
If the gorge is too deep and the hike too long, spend an enjoyable time on the Dinosaur Trail. For dino fans, and not only.
Weißhorn and Schwarzhorn
Our local mountains, Schwarzhorn and Weißhorn, show that even opposites can harmonise beautifully – with breathtaking views of distant peaks to boot.

Not in the mood for nature? Impossible!
Nature is wonderful when there is so much to discover that you suddenly find yourself right in the middle of it all: mud on your shoes, cairns reaching up to the sky, and glittering treasures that simply have to come home with you.
