Outdoor activities & relaxation

A full activity programme together with relaxation and regeneration

Popular with athletes, and renowned for its football, tennis, skiing, and swimming facilities, Merano/Meran is a well-established outdoor sports destination. Hosting the annual Merano-Lagundo/Algund Half Marathon, and the “RUN4FUN” short (under 5km) marathon for amateurs, sports-loving holidaymakers have plenty to choose from. These include the MeranArena with its Rockarena indoor climbing wall, the Lido Merano outdoor swimming pool and Merano Tennis Club.

Holidaymakers more interested in relaxation find themselves surrounded by greenery in a unique mountain setting. Ensconced in a fertile valley, Merano and its satellite villages enjoy a mild climate all year round where even exotic plants from the tropics survive – and thrive. With its six scenic promenades Merano is interwoven into its green environs thanks to an 80-km trail network, and the Gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle on its eastern boundary are listed as one the most beautiful botanical gardens in the world. 

The hiking trails above Merano lead to the Merano 2000 skiing and hiking resort. Here, sports lovers are confronted by numerous outdoor recreation options that include mountain bike trails and hiking paths – some leading across via ferratas to the summits.
