Directions
Coming from Sterzing, follow the main road towards Ratschings and continue towards Flading. Approximately 50 m after Hotel Larchhof, there is a car park on the left-hand side of the road.
Public transport
The meeting point can be reached by bus line 319 (Sterzing – Ratschings). Get off at the “Larch” bus stop. However, the bus arrives approximately 1.5 hours before the torchlight walk begins. Guests travelling by public transport should therefore allow for the additional waiting time.
