Earth Pyramids And Vineyards South Tirol

From fascinating Earth Pyramids to rows of grape vines in lush green vineyards in South Tirol, Italy.

Leaving our well appointed accommodations in Voels, we wind our way through to the next valley towards Klobenstein to find the interesting Earth Pyramids. These fascinating formations are said to be left over from the last ice age and were in stark contrast to the surrounding village of Ritten with its rolling green pastures and quaint churches.

Then we made tracks to the area of South Tirol which is famous for its super yummy liquid …. wine!! Just before reaching the wine strip - we couldn’t resist a visit to the historic cobbled town of St Pauls.

Because we were driving through to the Lago di Garda and onto Venice we were not able to stop for sampling, so next time we visit we will stay close and visit the vineyards by bike!

After stunning views of the Lago di Garda, a large and very popular lake for wind surfing and swimming, we head back out to the Autobahn and make a beeline for Venice where we found accommodation at the Hotel Piave in Mestre.
