The Rosengarten and Latemar massifs stretch into the blue sky above the Dolomites as if posing for a painting; the mighty Bletterbach gorge scours the rocks at the foot of the Weisshorn, revealing evidence of prehistoric times: together with the Schlern-Rosengarten, Fanes-Sennes-Prags, Tre Cime di Lavaredo and Puez-Odle nature parks, the Dolomite monuments of the Eggental valley form part of the South Tyrolean section of the UNESCO World Heritage Site and are thus quite literally unique in the world. The Dolomites cover an area of 142,000 hectares and were declared a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site in 2009 due to their scenic beauty and their geological and geomorphological significance.
We all have a responsibility for environmentally friendly behaviour and respectful conduct, both in the mountains and in everyday life. After all, we want our children and their children to be able to follow our green footsteps in the Dolomites, don’t we?
To preserve the unique natural beauty of Eggental for future generations, it is important to treat our environment with care and respect.
With the “Achtsam am Berg” initiative, we aim to encourage locals, tourism businesses and guests to take responsibility together. Even small actions can make a difference: refilling a reusable water bottle with tap water, taking your rubbish with you and, whenever possible, picking up litter left behind by others, using public transport or exploring the area on foot, by bike or with the mountain lifts.
Treating nature and others with respect is just as important: staying on marked trails, following signs and information boards, closing gates and pasture fences behind you, being considerate of others and keeping dogs on a lead.
Holders of the Mountain Pass can use 17 lifts in the heart of the Rosengarten, Latemar and Schlern/Sciliar any three or five days within a period of seven consecutive days.
