Active summer vacation in Merano and its environs

Be like the wild flowers, swaying in the wind and turning your face to the sun. Breathe in the forest air. Experience the summer with all its chirping, twittering Alpine magic.

The flowers blossom, the trees turn green, the woods hum with activity. Climb the peaks and be rewarded with magnificent 360° views, hurtle through the forest on your bike, or enjoy a well deserved rest at one of the huts and see speck, dumplings and schlutzkrapfen (pasta pockets) dished up from the kitchen. Lie and listen in the wild meadows, with only the power of summer nature in the mountains to be heard.

For hikers and bikers, for those newly in love and for all those who want to rekindle such moments, for mountain and nature lovers, for children and for the young at heart, for families and for those who want to spend some time alone with nature: here you will find a world of experiences. Meran and its environs are home to innumerable kilometres of cycle ways, up hill and down dale. An endless network of walking trails, both tough and gentle, criss-crosses the land, of all degrees of difficulty and at all altitudes. There are paths along the waale (ancient irrigation channels) in the valley and fixed rope routes up on the heights. Sunbathe in untamed meadows, among flowers and bees, bathe in cool mountain lakes that reflect the panorama of the summits … those who love nature in all its many hues will wish to stay here forever.
