Pfelders/Plan in Passeier

Pfelders (1,622 m) is an idyllic mountain village at the end of the Passeier Valley, nestled in the Texel Group. The car-free village is an ideal starting point for challenging hikes in the Texel Group Nature Park. Highlights include the Spronser Lakes Circular Trail (the largest high alpine lake district in the Alps), the Stettiner Hut and the Lazinser Almen. Untouched nature and unspoilt mountain farming culture make Pfelders an insider tip for nature lovers.

Active in Pfelders

• The Spronser Lakes
  The Königstour leads to the Spronser Lakes – ten high alpine lakes form the largest lake district in the Alps. The challenging circular route (6-7 hours) requires stamina, but rewards you with turquoise mountain lakes and spectacular views of the Ötztal Alps.
  
• Stettiner Hut and Eisjöchl
  The hike to the Stettiner Hut (2,875 m) at the foot of the Hochfeiler is a classic. Experienced mountaineers can conquer the Eisjöchl (3,008 m) and experience the glaciated high mountain world.
  
• Lazinser Alm and Faltschnal
  The Lazinser Alm is a more leisurely destination offering traditional South Tyrolean specialities. The Faltschnaltal valley attracts visitors with its rushing waterfalls and picturesque Faltschnalsee lake.
  
• Winter
  In winter, Pfelders becomes a paradise for ski tourers and snowshoe hikers – untouched slopes far away from the crowds.
