Holidays in the Bolzano and environs region

South Tyrol's southernmost city is a cradle of contrasts and cultures

City and mountains, valleys and villages: opposites attract in Bolzano and its surroundings. While on the squares, the linguistic diversity has everyone's ears. Italian words mix up with German's and produce an hypnotic melody. In restaurants, you can taste the soul-warming recipes that remind you of your Grandma's house or unbelievably good gourmet food. Go shopping and marvel at the architectural style of the city.  Whether you prefer to wander through the valley to explore the winding alleys, river promenades, flower gardens, and city walls, or get in a cable car to arrive on sunny plateaus and hiking areas, your holiday in South Tyrol will always be exciting.

What you shouldn't miss

Experience the blossoming when it's still winter elsewhere in South Tyrol. Visit a 5,000-year-old mummy. Find fossilised shells in the Bletterbachschlucht gorge. Hike to unique natural monuments.

Find your accommodation

How about a stylish flat in the old town? A wellness hotel with unique cuisine? A suite in a boutique hotel with gourmet cuisine? Or perhaps you’d prefer a room at a farm house?

Discover Bolzano's surroundings

Sweeping views, wonderful sights, the silence of nature and the mountains just a few steps ahead of you: the standards of living are high in the Bolzano and environs region.

Experience the Bolzano and environs region

The Bolzano and environs region combines valleys and mountains, cities and villages, action and quiet. Bolzano is located in the heart of the province and fully embodies the South Tyrolean way of life. This unique combination is immediately visible when strolling down the streets of the old town. But if you want to get a deeper insight into the characteristics of the place, yous should enjoy an aperitivo in the open air with the view of the Dolomites, order a dish of  Italian pasta or Knödel dumplings and listen to Italian and German's sounds. You’ll capture the essence of southern joy and northern reliability when gazing up at the medieval arcades next to magnificent city mansions and state-of-the-art wineries, or when viewing things in their entirety from high above. To do so, hop aboard the cable car, leave the city and step into nature, e.g., go visit he earth pyramids on the Ritten high plateau. Things are considerably more Alpine in character in the peaceful and rural Sarntal valley. Meanwhile, the GEOPARC Bletterbach - South Tyrol’s Grand Canyon, is another can’t-miss attraction in addition to the numerous medieval forts and castles. Set out now on foot or by bike to start your jounrey of discovery.

Autumn on the Tschögglberg mountain

The Tschögglberg mountain is particularly beautiful in autumn: during this season, the extensive larch forests, which form the largest larch plateau in Europe, turn a bright golden yellow, and the clear air gives an expansive view of the surrounding mountains.
