Tips from the Community
The organic wines from the Befehlhof winery are interesting and sometimes unusual. The vintner works only with natural yeasts and lets the wines ferment completely. The result is bone-dry wines with a very distinct character. All wines show a strong mineral note. My favorite is the still rosé, which tastes of redcurrant and wild strawberry. Despite the dryness, it makes you smile. The rosé also has absolutely nothing to do with gummy bears. I am delighted.

Schlanders is pretty with its many old houses and narrow alleys. I even like some of the many new houses.

The Feuersteig (Path No. 13) is a popular hiking trail on the Vinschger Sonnenberg between Schlanders and Vetzan. Due to its sunny location on the south-facing slope, it is mostly snow-free all year round and thus ideal as a winter or early spring hiking trail. Spectacular panorama of the Nörderberg, Ortler Group and Martell Alps!

St. Nicholas Church Latsch, Vinschgau The St. Nicholas Church in Latsch is a Romanesque church dating back to the 14th century. While it was formerly owned by the Latsch Monastery, it now belongs to the municipality of Latsch. The fresco remnants on the south front of the church, depicting the crucifixion of St. Nicholas and St. Christopher, are worth seeing. Since 2017, the church has been an exhibition space for the menhir found in the "Bichlkirche": the stele, made of the finest Vinschgau marble, formed the base of the altar mensa. The head and foot sections, as well as parts of the left shoulder of the 107 cm high, 77 cm wide, and 12 cm thick stone, are missing. Its original location was probably in the area of the present-day church on the Bühel. In addition to the iconographic features typical of the male carved stones of the Etsch Valley groups, such as garland belts, battle axes, daggers, clubs, bows, various decorative elements, and fringed cloaks, there are elements belonging to the Lombard group from Valcamonica and Valtellina, such as suns, deer, and a stylized human figure. Thus, the Latsch figure menhir represents a magnificent testament to the millennia-old connection between the Vinschgau and the Etsch Valley with the valleys of northeastern Lombardy. Figure menhirs reflect an ideological-religious world centered around mythologized ancestral heroes. They also indicate a social differentiation based on status and role, driven by the wealth associated with copper mining. The church is open daily from 09:00-18:00.
