Where time has stood still? As early as 1505, the Bolzano elite moved up to the Ritten during the hot summer months. With the construction of the rack railway from Bolzano to the Ritten around 1907, the Ritten definitively became the cradle of the summer retreat. This traditional summer retreat lasted exactly 72 days. It started each year on June 29th, on "Peter & Paul," and ended in early September. Let yourself be inspired during the walk on the promenade...
Author’s recommendation
When summer arrives, Maria Himmelfahrt with its beautiful summer villas and benches under the lindens is worth a visit.

At the Oberbozen station, you will find the first trail sign named "Sommerfrischweg." Follow it as we cross the village of Oberbozen heading west. Passing special villas, the path leads us directly to the summer retreat at Maria Himmelfahrt, where time has stood still.
