The small mountain village of Grissiano (Grissian) is located south of Prissiano, in a low mountain range at an altitude of about 800 metres. Peace and relaxation are the main focus here, with mountains, meadows and fields all around. The buildings of the village are scattered and divided into individual farms with their agricultural buildings, which are often accessible via their own small side street. You can start your excursions on foot or by bike directly from the village.

A hike leads to Prissiano, the second main village of the municipality. There you will find the comforts of a small centre with shopping and refreshment facilities. If you are fit enough, we recommend the circular hike to the surrounding villages: These include Sirmiano di Sotto and Sirmiano di Sopra above Nalles, Grissiano and Prissiano. This 3.5-hour hike partly follows the Path of Reflection to the Seven Sacraments, where light-flooded columns by the glass artist Christoph Gabrieli from Tesimo can be found. It also leads past the stunning St. James Church.

St. James in Grissiano, known as Sankt Jakob in Grissian in German, is known far and wide. The unique church dates back to the 13th century and has something that other sacred buildings do not have: the first depiction of the Dolomites. The other frescoes of the Montemaria School are among the most important Romanesque frescoes still preserved in South Tyrol. For this reason, St. James is also part of the "Alpine Road of Romanesque Art - Stairways to Heaven". This project unites numerous Romanesque cultural sites between South Tyrol and Grisons in Switzerland. In summer, you can register for a guided tour through the little church at the Information Office.
