Prags: where nature meets rich cultural heritage

Located among the awe-inspiring peaks of the Prags Dolomites, the untouched Prags valley offers a peaceful retreat shaped by nature and steeped in tradition. Known for its pristine beauty and deep-rooted agricultural heritage, the area invites you to slow down, reconnect with and be inspired by the landscape around you.

Did you know? As part of the Dolomites UNESCO Word Heritage Site, the Prags valley is not only cherished for its outstanding scenery but also for its remarkable geological significance.

Close your eyes, take a deep breath, and feel yourself recharge. The pristine natural surroundings of the Prags valley offer the perfect conditions for both physical renewal and mental clarity. Fresh mountain air, crystal-clear waters, and tranquil alpine scenery create an ideal setting for holistic well-being — one that benefits not only the body and mind but also the land itself. 

Central to this approach is targeted visitor management, which protects nature and its resources, ensuring a long-term equilibrium between tourism and conservation. This commitment guarantees that Prags remains a place of vitality – for nature, for locals, and for every visitor who walks its trails.

To reduce growing traffic volumes and protect the pristine natural environment, the Prags valley has adopted a comprehensive, valley-wide mobility concept supported by focused visitor management. It includes:

• Regulated access to Lake Prags: During the high season, entry to the valley’s access routes is restricted to prior online reservation or public transport use, ensuring a more relaxed nature experience for everyone.
• Flexible bike access: Bike travel to and within the Prags valley is always welcome.
• Local public transport & convenient guest cards: The region boasts an excellent bus and train network, making it easy to get around without a car. With the Südtirol Guest Pass, travellers can even use public transport free of charge during their stay.
• Traffic-calmed zones: Private transport is heavily restricted in sensitive areas of the valley, particularly near hiking trails and nature reserves.
