A gentle walk along the Rienz, through blooming meadows and woods, reaching Aufkirchen with Dolomite views. Relaxing return to Niederdorf – pure nature to enjoy.

This pleasant circular hike begins in Niederdorf and follows the peaceful Rienz River, where the gentle murmur of the water and the calm valley landscape create an inviting start. At Neunhäusern, a gradual ascent takes you through meadows and light woodland up to Aufkirchen – a charming hamlet with traditional farms and panoramic views of the Dolomites.

From there, the route descends gently toward Toblach along a quiet road, offering open views of the Upper Puster Valley and the surrounding peaks. The return to Niederdorf is an easy walk along a flat, paved road, perfect for a leisurely finish.

A lovely tour for those who appreciate nature, scenic views, and a relaxed pace – ideal for a mindful and restorative day outdoors.
