The Monte Specie on the Prato Piazza is a popular hiking destination in the Braies Dolomites. The summit is most easily reached from the Prato Piazza car park, which lies at around 2,000 metres above sea level. This high plateau is known for its stunning panoramas of the surrounding mountain ranges, including the famous Three Peaks.

This moderately difficult hike leads through alpine meadows and sparse forests, following a well-signposted route. The summit of the Monte Specie, which lies at an altitude of 2,307 metres, offers a spectacular view of the entire Braies Valley as well as the more distant peaks of South Tyrol.

In addition to the impressive mountain scenery, the area is also known for its flora and fauna. In spring and early summer, numerous alpine flowers bloom on the meadows of Prato Piazza. The fauna is also richly represented with a variety of bird species and typical alpine animals such as marmots.

The hike to the Monte Specie promises unforgettable impressions and spectacular views that you won't forget.

Important: In the summer months, an online booking is required to enter the Braies Valley by car.

The inspiration for the drink came last summer, driven by a preference for basil in cocktails and influenced by the excellent Gin Basil Smash created by Jörg Meyer at the Lion Bar de Paris in Hamburg in 2008. This cocktail sparked an interest in the combination of basil and cucumber, which led to the idea of combining these ingredients in a homemade syrup.

In order to give the mixture an additional visual and taste accent, consideration was given to how the green colour of the syrup could be intensified by an additional component. The decision was made to integrate a mango mousse, which is not only visually appealing, but also complements the herbal, botanical flavour of the syrup with a fruity note. When developing the recipe, the challenge was to balance the proportions of the ingredients to ensure that all components work harmoniously together. The result is a cocktail whose colouring is a reminder of the green of nature and the bright summer sun.

Did you know that the Hotel Hubertus already exists since 1984? At that time, it was a small guesthouse with only a few rooms. In order to increase the occupancy rate, the Gasser family founded two travel agencies for bus tourism in 1992. Gradually, renovations and extensions were carried out. Already in 1994, the first investment in sustainability was made and a wood-chip heating system was built. An absolute highlight of the hotel is the Skypool, which was completed in 2016. However, this amazing construction was not the end of the expansion work. It was followed in 2022 by the construction of the free-floating wellness platform Heaven&Hell with its relaxation room. A unique architectural masterpiece.

"Taking a bath in the atmosphere of the forest". This is how the Japanese health trend Shinrin Yoku can be translated - or simply: forest bathing.

Who doesn't know the revitalizing feeling that comes over you when you breathe in the fresh air during a short walk in the forest and immediately feel much more relaxed and balanced? The forest has an enormous healing potential, because in addition to relaxation, it provides stimulation without being too demanding. In a mindful interaction with the forest, one can rediscover one's natural balance.

Here are three exercise suggestions for you:

1 Feel your roots

Find a comfortable place in the forest, where you can stand safely and steadily. You are also invited to take off your shoes. Close your eyes. Now consciously pay attention to your breath flow and feel how you absorb energy from the forest air with each inhalation and how you let the blockages and stress flow away with each exhalation.

2 Sensory journey

For this exercise, too, first find a comfortable place. Breathe in and out deeply three times and then focus your attention on each sense in turn. What do you see? Look at the forest around you. Then close your eyes. What do you hear? Keep your eyes closed and then try to feel the forest atmosphere. What do you feel? Finally, take a few deep breaths. What do you smell?

3 Mindful walking at a snail's pace

Choose a path in the forest and move forward as mindfully as possible. Try to feel every movement - every step, every push and roll of the foot. Does the forest floor feel dry, damp, cold, warm, soft or uneven? What can you feel under your feet?

A workspace of creativity, exceptional taste and inspiration. - This is how the newly opened restaurant in Brunico by the internationally renowned top chef and South Tyrol's only 3-star chef Norbert Niederkofler can be described.

The new restaurant “Atelier Moessmer Norbert Niederkofler” is located in the former executive villa of the cloth factory Moessmer, which is one of the oldest and most renowned fabric producers in the world.
In addition to seasonal menus, the Atelier also has space for some of Norbert Niederkofler's signature dishes as well as new creations.
The fact that high cuisine addresses issues such as sustainability, short cycles and supply chains with local producers and farmers, as well as seasonality, is thanks to Niederkofler. 

“I want to inspire the world with the spark of ethical cuisine, to change the way we eat, work together and live.” – Norbert Niederkofler

It is therefore not surprising that he was one of the first to be awarded the "green Michelin star".
