SEEHOF NATURE RETREAT
ITALY
THE PERSONALITIES
Wellness aficionados. Travelers looking for a reset. Mountain and nature lovers.
MOMENTS
Fresh mountain air. The beauty of the passing clouds. The scent of pine trees and apple orchards. Watching herons fly overhead. The feeling of moss under bare feet. Jumping into a private natural lake after the sauna. Moments of calm. The lightness of being.
BEST VISITING MONTHS
The best time to visit the South Tyrolean Alps depends on your interests, but each season offers its own charm. Summer (June to September) is perfect for hiking, biking, and enjoying the lush landscapes under warm, pleasant weather. Autumn (September to November) brings vibrant fall colors and a quieter atmosphere, ideal for scenic hikes and savoring the harvest season. Winter (December to March) transforms the region into a snowy wonderland, attracting winter sports enthusiasts with its excellent skiing and snowboarding possibilities (you can reach the slopes in 30 minutes by car). Spring (April to June) offers a peaceful retreat with blooming flowers and milder weather, making it great for lower-elevation hikes and witnessing nature's renewal.
