Untouched nature, numerous chapels or life on the alp surrounded by lovely mountain meadows - this is what you can enjoy in Kappl on the sunny side of the Paznaun.
Since the summer of 2013, the Alpe Dias has been home to an exhibition of Alpine life in Paznaun. Original settings are used to demonstrate how life in the Alps has changed over the last few decades. The short walk from the Dias mountain station leads past a petting zoo and small original huts and leads up just above the Alpe Dias – perfect for a family trip. On the journey back, you can walk down to the Sunny Mountain lake where a large adventure playground and BBQ areas complete the activities on offer.

The peaceful location of the Herzjesu chapel is the ideal place to relax and is easy to access from the village. The route starts out from the village square in Kappl and leads past the bakery to the left, along a steeper section up to the district of ‘Egg’. Above the Hotel Sonne, a detour leads off to the chapel and runs along the path to Dias. This is one of over 90 chapels in Kappl and gave the place its name. Walking uphill a short way, you will reach a vantage point where you can look down into the valley.

The original district of Langesthei is within comfortable reach by car or bus. The pace of life is slower in this small hamlet high above Kappl with its houses dotted along the steep hillsides. The painted vaulted ceiling in the St. Hieronymus Baroque church is particularly impressive. From the church, the route leads towards Ausserlangesthei to a hairpin bend with a magnificent resting place where you can enjoy views to Galtür and the neighbouring district of See.
