Internet Consulting - Elmar HilberWondering what else you can do, far from sustainable accommodation and activities, to travel as eco-friendly as possible? We have put together a few tips for you:
- Avoid air travel if possible: South Tyrol is an ideal destination here, as it is easy to reach by car from neighbouring countries. Many places along the main valleys, such as Bozen or Sterzing, can even be reached comfortably by train thanks to their own railway station.
- Only pack what you really need: Of course, this is especially true when travelling by car, because the lighter the vehicle, the fewer emissions are emitted.
- Use a refillable drinking bottle: On hikes & co you can easily refill them and save not only waste but also costs. South Tyrol has excellent drinking water from the tap that you can consume without hesitation.
- Avoid littering in nature: Even though this should go without saying - it is not uncommon to come across rubbish in forests, on meadows or hiking trails. When out and about in nature, always take your rubbish with you and dispose of it properly at the next opportunity. Nature will thank you for it.
We wish you an unforgettable holiday in South Tyrol and will be happy to answer any further questions you may have on the subject of sustainability.
