The event series "
Merano Spring" pays homage to the beauty of nature in Merano and its surroundings:
In this time of awakening spring, when nature emerges from its winter slumber, the first colorful flowers bloom, and the warming rays of the sun invite to relaxed walks and hikes. Naturns, nestled at the foot of the Texel Group Nature Park, opens its doors to festivals, markets, and special events.
The magnificent gardens of
Trauttmansdorff Castle once again invite to leisurely strolls through their diverse and colorful gardens. The apple blossom transforms the surroundings into a sea of white and pink, while the Merano Spring in Merano impresses with artistic flower installations and plant figures.
For adventurous and nature-loving families who want to experience spring in all its glory, Naturns, located at the foot of the Texel Group Nature Park, is the ideal destination. Thanks to the Sonnenberg mountain, the region offers year-round hiking opportunities - a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts enchanted by the mild spring air and the impressive landscape. From leisurely strolls to challenging hikes, there is something for every explorer.
Naturns also offers thrills for adventure seekers with a variety of exciting activities. An absolute highlight is the
via ferrata "Knott" above the Unterstell cable car station. Here, even families can gain their first climbing experiences. The climbing path ends at the
Unterstell viewing platform: a 16-meter-long and 50-meter-high steel structure that provides breathtaking panoramic views for those without vertigo!
In the valley, visitors can explore the newly opened Nature Park House, where children and adults can interactively discover everything worth knowing about the nature and inhabitants of the Texel Group Nature Park. A family-friendly bike tour along the
Via Claudia Augusta or a hike along the irrigation channel paths offer additional active experiences. After an active day outdoors, visitors can relax at the
Erlebnistherme Naturns, where thermal water aids in regeneration, alleviates discomfort, and has a calming effect.
Spring in Naturns offers not only natural experiences but also entertainment. Don't miss the
Spring Festival on April 12, which marks the beginning of the season and welcomes spring with a special focus on gardens, decorations, handmade goods, and local products. Traditional South Tyrolean "Schuhplattler" dancers bring the tradition to life, while the farmers pamper with delicious dishes!
Experience the magic of spring in Naturns and be inspired by the variety of activities and events. Enjoy nature, explore new paths, and immerse yourself in the culture and culinary delights of this enchanting South Tyrolean region.
