In the Val Passiria/Passeiertal Valley near the entrance of the Texelgruppe Nature Park and overlooking Merano/Meran, Tirolo/Dorf Tirol is the only village with a direct chairlift connection to the spa town.
In Tirolo, customs and traditions have always played a key role. The village hosts various cultural events such as the Kulturfrühling music festival, the So kocht Dorf Tirol culinary weeks, and the VinoCulti wine festival.
Other activities of note include tours of the local botanical gardens, demonstrations with birds of prey at the Bird Rescue Center, musical concerts, as well as religious parades and processions throughout the year.
