Ahrntal - Pure Air Valley
Breathe freely in the Ahrntal valley
Ahrntal - a place to take a deep breath
Good air is an elixir of life and there is plenty of it in the Ahrntal Valley. So much so that the long valley in the Rieserferner Ahrn Nature Park can call itself a clean air area.
The outstanding air quality of the Ahrn Valley is no coincidence. The high alpine location between 1000 and 3500 meters, surrounded by over 80 majestic three thousand meter peaks, wooded slopes and an abundance of water sources contribute to this.
With 120 drinking water springs, 35 mountain lakes and ten impressive waterfalls, the Ahrntal truly draws from the full. The valley stretches as far as the northernmost mountain in the country, through the Rieserferner-Ahrn Nature Park, far away from any through traffic. A breathtaking backdrop of mountains, forests, alpine meadows and clear water promises the purest air. A promise that is kept.
But it's not just high up on the mountain that the Ahrntal can boast exceptionally good air, deep underground too. In the "climate gallery", at the heart of the ancient copper mine in Prettau, the air is so pure that asthmatics and allergy sufferers can breathe freely. Recent studies have proven the positive effect.
Immerse yourself in the revitalizing air of the Ahrntal Valley and experience a symbiosis of nature and well-being.
"Climate Gallery" in the ancient copper mine
No dust, no allergens, no pollen, no noise:
Experience a unique retreat deep in the heart of the mountains - the climate gallery in the disused mine in Prettau. After almost a kilometer ride on the mine train, an oasis of peace awaits you, far away from dust, allergens and noise. Where miners once dug for copper, today a comfortably equipped area offers not only historical charm, but also effective relief for various respiratory ailments.
With a relative humidity of 95 percent, the tunnel binds suspended particles and allergens that settle on the damp rock walls. The result? Air that is as pure as it gets. There is no dust, no allergens and no pollen - an ideal microclimate for breathing cures known as speleotherapy. Immerse yourself and experience the healing power of nature, deep underground.
