>>> The word the "native one"
„One cannot leave homeland. It is in our head. And it
is in our soul“
(Horst Bienek)
Nested in the east to west running Hochpustertal/Alta
Pusteria valley is Niederdorf/Villa Bassa. The
village has a safe location in the Dolomites and boasts,
thanks to a favourable altitude of 1,154 metres, ideal
conditions for a healthy and relaxing holiday, in winter
and summer. NIEDERDORF/VILLABASSA has a proud
tradition as a mountain spa resort, as the locality was
among the first places to attract tourists in the
Pustertal/Pusteria valley and many famous personalities
have sought relaxation here.
NIEDERDORF/VILLABASSA is a noble locality in
the heart of the Hochpustertal/Alta Pusteria valley,
surrounded by the unique scenery of the Dolomites.
Surrounded by rich forests, the area enjoys a healthy
climate which is particularly suited to a spa break.
An oasis for recreation:
The park extends over an area embracing 5 hectares
throughout the centre of town. The Kurpark (literally
“cure park”) well measures up to its name. Among the
features spread throughout the extensive recreation
area, one discovers an inviting lake, fancifully set in
the surroundings, with a versatile stage suitable for a
variety of cultural events, comfortable stands for
spectators, floodlit tennis courts and a covered boccia
court. Senior visitors will find here a pavilion
especially for them. Along with the many footpaths, an
equal number resting spots await those on foot, be it
walking or jogging.
In addition to the large playground for young kids,
with a swing, slide and sandbox with digging shovel,
there is an adventure landscape where children 12 and up
can rollick and romp as much as they please. Among the
attractions there are a tree house, a giant vine for
swinging and a gorilla slide. There is also a balancing
tree for kids to test their agility, and they can finish
off on the climbing tree or by sliding down the pole.
And for those who tire out after all that fun, there is
a hammock to fall into and take a nap in. Another
attraction for kids is the water play area, offering
sluices and dams for controlling the course of the
stream. The botanical nature trail, providing
knowledge of plants and animals in the park, is an
educational experience. |
