Getting here by car
The fastest way to get to the Tauferer Ahrn Valley by car is via the Brennerautobahn. Get off at the Brixen / Bressanone exit and drive into the Puster Valley towards Bruneck / Brunico. Just before Bruneck / Brunico (right after you´ve driven across the Rienz River), turn right towards Bruneck West / Tauferer Ahrn Valley). Right after the exit turn left and drive under the bridge towards Bruneck / Brunico. At the big roundabout drive towards Tauferer Ahrn Valley. After about 1 km, turn right and drive across the Ahr River (not at the first wooden bridge, at the second bridge). Drive on the Bruneck Nord bypass until you come to the traffic lights. Then turn left into the Tauferer Ahrn Valley.
If you´re coming from Innichen / San Candido (e.g. Tauernautobahn), take the Bruneck Ost exit. In Bruneck / Brunico turn right towards Tauferer Ahrn Valley (there´s a small gas station on the right-hand side) and stay on the main road.
Getting here by train
Your destination when traveling here by train is Bruneck / Brunico. The north / south railroad line goes via Innsbruck, Brenner, Bozen / Bolzano. You usually have to change trains in Franzensfeste / Fortezza. The east / west railroad line goes via Lienz, Innichen / San Candido, Franzensfeste / Fortezza. Once in Bruneck / Brunico, you can then either take the bus, which usually leaves directly from the train station, or take a taxi.
You should be prepared for longer waiting periods (approx. 1 hr) in Franzensfeste / Fortezza, where you´ll be changing trains. If need be, a continuation of your journey to Puster Valley (get off in Bruneck / Brunico) is also possible by bus.
