Ratschings offers countless opportunities to explore South Tyrol's mountain landscapes throughout the year. In summer, a wide variety of hiking trails wind through the Ratschingstal, Ridnauntal and Jaufental valleys, from leisurely walks to alpine huts to challenging summit hikes. A special destination for experienced mountaineers is the Becherhaus, South Tyrol's highest mountain refuge at 3,195 metres above sea level. Mountain bikers and e-bikers can explore the landscape on two wheels, while the Ibex via ferrata offers an exciting sporting challenge. Another natural highlight is the Gilfenklamm gorge near Stange, where the Ratschinger Bach stream has carved its way through an impressive marble gorge.
Winter in Ratschings is just as varied. The Ratschings ski area boasts 28 kilometres of perfectly groomed slopes, while the Gasse ski lift is particularly suitable for families and beginners. Cross-country skiing enthusiasts can choose between a valley trail, a circular trail and a panoramic high-altitude trail at over 1,800 metres above sea level. Away from the ski slopes, snow-covered winter hiking trails and a variety of ski touring routes invite visitors to explore the winter landscape. The region's toboggan runs offer even more fun in the snow.
