Schelleberg / Former Moncucco Station

Highlight • Historical Site

The former Schelleberg train station is located directly on the Brenner-Sterzing cycle path - a disused railway line - and has been left to the ravages of time. Today he stands on the cycle path as an impressive contemporary witness.

We stayed overnight at the Hotel …
