Weisstannen village

Weisstannen is a mountain village as it is written in books: rustic wooden houses, green meadows and beautiful mountains all around. The only hotel in town (Hotel Alpenhof) is a very good place to stay.

Although the trail runs through the valley, it is surprisingly steep. However, you'll be rewarded with three waterfalls.

The famous Batöni Waterfall Arena is located in the Sardona Tectonic Arena, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

In this arena-shaped rocky area, three large waterfalls cascade down from the cliffs, all clearly visible from the same spot. From here, two paths lead past them on the right and left, climbing steeply upwards.
A very impressive, very rocky area.

Batöni, a magical place.

In the morning I set off for Weisstannen. First by train and then by bus. The bus ride into the valley alone was worth the trip. The view was amazing and the bus driver steered his vehicle up the narrow road with virtuosity.
