Gummer – a heavenly destination for your mountain holiday
All is quiet, enveloped in a comforting veil of darkness. And a starry sky the likes of which you’ve probably never seen before. Gummer enjoys a wonderful location on a high plateau at the entrance to the Eggental valley, near Bozen – perfect for taking in this natural spectacle at night. As for the daytime, there’s plenty to be enjoyed, too.

Gummer, one of Europe’s best stargazing spots




Gummer is the best place in Italy to see the stars. This is not just our opinion: the chart compiled by Astronomitaly, the Italian organisation for astronomical tourism, says as much. Whether you just look at the stars with your naked eye, through the telescope at the local observatory, or at the planetarium, you’re in for a real treat. And while you wait for the sun to set, there are two interesting and educational themed paths you can enjoy, which are also child-friendly.
