La vita è la somma delle emozioni vissute

Tradition in South Tyrol can be seen, heard and tasted. Especially in summer, village festivals bring locals and visitors together. They are organised by local associations. Regional specialities, traditional brass bands and a lively atmosphere are all an essential part of these celebrations. In this way, local traditions are kept alive and passed down from generation to generation. 🍻🎺

A hike through Merano City & Valleys is even better when it includes a stop at one of the many mountain huts. The Naturnser Nörderberg is especially known for its scenic hiking trails and traditional mountain huts, where South Tyrolean dishes and local specialities make the perfect reward after a day spent exploring the mountains. ⛰🌿

South Tyrolean traditional dress reflects the identity and history of its villages and valleys. Colours, fabrics, embroidery and accessories can vary from place to place, with many details traditionally indicating regional origin or special occasions.

Women’s attire often includes a bodice, blouse, long skirt and apron, while men traditionally wear trousers or Lederhosen, a shirt, waistcoat and hat. Carefully preserved and still worn today, these garments are a visible expression of South Tyrol’s living cultural heritage. 👠🎩
