    Hiking & "törggelen": This ancient South Tyrolean custom alone is worth a trip. From October to the beginning of the Advent season, you meet the "törggelen" in the Renon inns and taverns with young wine, sweet cider and hearty delicacies. When the chestnuts are roasted over the "Keschtnfeuer", you feel as if you have travelled back in time. One-time quaint!

    Author’s recommendation

    Beim Törggelen werden die Kastanien meist gebraten (geröstet) und manchmal mit Butter verzehrt – ein Genuss!
