Naturno/Naturns has one of the
lowest amounts of precipitation in the Eastern Alps. With 315 days of sunshine a year, you will wait expectantly for another welcome rainfall! The pleasantly mild climate is influenced by
warm southern air currents, which flow from the Merano basin into the western part of Naturno. In the middle of February, when the surrounding mountain peaks are still covered in snow, spring is already in bloom here. Due to the Mediterranean-influenced climate, the
vegetation is also
particularly diverse. In addition to the wide variety of apple varieties cultivated around Naturno, fruits that are usually associated with locations further south are also grown. Some home gardens in Naturno grow figs and kiwis,
grapes thrive at up to
900 m above sea level, and even lemons bloom here. This friendship with the sun shapes the area and its people, and helps culture and nature to blossom at their finest.
