Advent in the Valley

Pitztal Mountain Advent in Plangeross

The Pitztal Mountain Advent in Plangeroß offers a welcome contrast to the otherwise hectic run-up to Christmas. Authentic, contemplative and stress-free.
In the run-up to Christmas, the Pitztal valley entices visitors with traditions, a spirit of contemplation and a very special Advent calendar. In the hamlet of Plangeroß, a window full of surprises opens every day in a different house.
