Desensitization is the slow, gradual, age-appropriate approach to the upcoming treatment.

A filling therapy may not only be necessary because of the nasty ‘caries devil’

If the ‘caries devils’ have been at work for some time – possibly unnoticed – the caries spread can already reach the tooth nerve – the so-called pulp of the milk tooth.

All teeth are professionally cleaned and then fluoridated. This is mainly to allow the child to slowly get used to the various instruments that we also need for any subsequent sessions.

MuseumPasseier, St. Leonhard in Passeier – The exciting life of Andreas Hofer

Immerse yourself in the eventful life of Andreas Hofer – the national hero of South Tyrol. The MuseumPasseier tells its exciting story in a lively and entertaining way. Outside, in a typical farm with smithy, a mill, a bowling alley, you will be transported to life over 200 years ago. A visit to the Jaufenburg with a free-standing five-story keep is also worthwhile.

Taufers Castle near Sand in Taufers – majestic and fortified

The mighty castle complex is one of the largest and most beautiful castles in the Tyrolean region. It majestically sits enthroned on a steep rock. For children there is a large weir system with an armory, library, courtroom, dining room, torture chamber, prison, battlements and other things to discover. The Palas is particularly impressive. Definitely worth a visit! Perfect in combination with a visit to the Prettau show mine.

Children’s holidays in South Tyrol – farm holidays with children

Children’s vacation on the farm are an unforgettable adventure for the whole family. During one Children’s holidays in South Tyrol kids can let off steam every day and gain a lot of educational experience. Above all, dealing with the many farm animals on a daily basis enables educationally valuable moments during the Holidays with children on a farm. "Does milking hurt the cow?", "How fast does the tractor drive?" Or "Can I give the calf a name?" – these are just three of around 1000 questions that deserve an answer. The Bacher family has a suitable answer for all questions and is already looking forward to the helping hands that support them in the stable work, feeding and distributing the daily pats.

Excursions in South Tyrol

Our most beautiful destinations in South Tyrol with children

Where to go for a trip with children in South Tyrol?
Mostly we go to South Tyrol for a hike with the kids. The particularly beautiful destinations in nature were often beautiful excursion destinations and hiking destinations for us at the same time.

I am thinking particularly of the Gilfenklamm near Sterzing. Or the less well-known Burkhard Gorge with the sandy beach (!) On Aglsboden. The Bletterbach Gorge near Bozen is no longer an insider tip – but it is still worth seeing: The Bletterbach Gorge is the most famous gorge in South Tyrol and is worth a trip with children.

4 child-friendly hikes in South Tyrol

Between the Ortler and the spectacular crenellations of the Dolomites, wild mountain landscapes with exciting gorges and waterfalls beckon. We present 4 adventure hikes in South Tyrol that impress children and adults alike.

1. To the earth pyramids of Terento

Mill and panorama trail in the Puster Valley: The hike leads from Terento mostly along the Terentner stream to the earth pyramids. The brook rises on the 2,700 m high lizard peak, the "Hegedex", as it is called by the locals. The energy of the stream was used early on to drive the mills from the region. All in all a rewarding hike that has a lot of potential for children to discover.
