Our little alpine cabin –
The lodge ‘Schafstall’ (‘Sheepfold’) in Castelrotto
Our small alp lays at around 40 minutes walking from our farm. There we manage also the ancient Schafstallhütte, which is open in summer from the end of May to mid-October. Excursionists who arrive here will enjoy the typical South Tyrolean cooking with Speckknödel, freid eggs with speck, roasted potatoes, speck shelf with local bread and home-made desserts. Some people come here just only to enjoy our Kaiserschmarrn en plein air.

Holidays at the Farm Niglutsch in Castelrotto
A leisurely hike takes you
to our alpine cabin
Take the hiking path no. 8 to reach the lodge ‘Schafstall’. After going up through the woods over the witches chairs you reach the Schafstallhütte in 40 minutes. By Marinzen cable car it is of course more comfortable. From the mountain station of the cable car you need to follow trail n. 9 and you reach the Schafstallhütte in 15 minutes. For excursionists the Schafstallhütte is the ideal break while ascending the Puflatsch up to 2176 metres, which takes 2-3 hours from Castelrotto.
