In the Reign of Silence in Stilfserjoch

Take a deep breath. Breathe out completely. You have arrived. At the place of ultimate stillness, in Stilfserjoch in the South Tyrolean Vinschgau. Far from the city and street noise, the stresses of daily life .... Here reigns silence and the breathtaking mountains of the Stilfserjoch National Park. Distant summit crosses, mountain ranges and bashing waterfalls springing from ragged rocks. At the dazzling heights of 2.757 meters, there are no such things as theme parks, shopping malls or TV shows. There is just you and the wild unaltered nature surrounding the eternal stones.

The Queen of Alpine Roads

Trafoi in Vinschgau is the starting point of the road leading to Stilfserjoch. The road is the highest pass road in Italy and one of the most spectacular pass roads worldwide. Over 49 km it meanders through the impressive landscape with 48 curves on the South Tyrolean and 34 on the Lombardian side.

In late summer you will find here the Stilfserjoch Bike Day attracting thousands of hobby and pro-bikers from all over the region and the world. On this day the so-called „Queen of Alpine Roads“ is closed for motor-operated traffic. Then you won't hear anymore motorbikes, no more honking cars, only silence and the heavy breathing of those pedal along with beating hearts.

The Stilfserjoch National Park extends itself around the pass road over four Italian provinces and 130.000 hectars presenting one of the largest nature reserves in Europe. The park is rich of the most diverse animals and plants, a refuge for creatures like the groundhogs, chamois and capricorns. Amidst this idyll towers the impressive massif Ortler-Cevedale with its rugged peaks and fascinatingly clear glacial lakes.
