Enjoy a Nordic Walking tour around Ftan. You start your tour in Ftan Grond, in the centre. From here, with the best view of the valley, you walk out to the Hotel Paradies, past a playground and on up to the High Alpine Institute. From here you dive into the Ftan forest, also called God Chauols. You make a loop here and finally reach the village of Ftan again.
