The southernmost city of the region
Set out on a journey in Laives with the sun upon your face
To the south of Bolzano/Bozen, along the Alto Adige Wine Road and near Branzoll/Bronzolo and Vadena/Pfatten is Laives/Leifers. Gaze across the apple orchards over breakfast on the sun terrace. Boost your energy and be ready to take a walk on the Laives High Altitude Trail. A tough ascent - and you'll have a magnificent view across the wide and airy Etschtal valley. Get on a train or bus and reach Bolzano, in less than half an hour. It's a city where the mild temperatures of winter days allow you to stay outdoor for a longer time. Roam the streets of Laives to observe and listen to the Italian and German cultures. Call at the Christmas market and soak up the festive atmosphere while tasting local wines or eating the Italian pizza to make your holiday in South Tyrol an authentic experience.
