Sightseeing in the Surrounding Area

The harvest ends. The wine’s story continues.

After the grapes are picked, the work moves from vineyard to cellar. The fruit is carefully processed, and during fermentation, yeasts transform its sugars into alcohol.🍇🍷

Next comes maturation. Some wines develop in stainless steel to preserve their freshness and fruit, while others mature in wooden barrels. Here, gentle oxygen exchange and contact with the wood help shape their balance and complexity, sometimes adding subtle spicy or toasted notes.

Time, patience and the winemaker’s care: behind every glass of South Tyrolean wine, there’s a whole world to discover. 🍷🪵

Along the Timmelsjoch High Alpine Road, the “Telescope” invites you to see the mountains from a different perspective. Below the Scheibkopf, its architecture frames the peaks of Granatkogel and Hoher First, with the Alpine landscape unfolding all around.

A stop to take a breath, look a little further and let the scenery speak for itself.

Quite possibly our tastiest tradition here in South Tyrol: Törggelen. But do you know what’s traditionally on the menu?

Depending on the farm, the meal starts with barley soup or Schlutzkrapfen, our local filled pasta. Next comes a hearty platter of farmhouse sausages, cured pork, dumplings and sauerkraut, served with sweet grape must and young wine.
To finish, there are sweet filled pastries and roasted chestnuts.

Fun fact: many locals enjoy their chestnuts with fresh butter! Have you tried them this way?

Merano in autumn comes alive in warm, colourful tones. 🍂
From strolling along the Passer River and the famous Winter and Summer Promenades to exploring the historic arcades and enjoying a little shopping, the city offers plenty of ways to experience its unique Mediterranean atmosphere.

Dorf Tirol in autumn? Pretty much a postcard. 🍂 Around 70 kilometres of marked trails lead through vineyards, orchards and diverse landscapes all the way into the mountains of the Texel Group Nature Park. The perfect season to explore the area on foot and enjoy the colours and atmosphere of autumn.
