Meran, this lovely spa town, mixes culture and tradition with all the amenities of modern life; you'll love walking through the town and we are sure you'll appreciate the quiet corners of the old town as much as the more vibrant areas of the city.
In Meran tradition stands for keeping and preserving what is good, for filling history with life, for providing visitors with the opportunity to experience the joys of life.
A visit to Meran's thermal baths is an unforgettable delight for body and soul.
There are miles of well-kept walkways and walking paths like the Sisi-Weg, the Passerpromenade and the Tappeinerweg, which will let you explore an alpine area brimming with Mediterranean plants. This mix of the Alpine and the Mediterranean has always been a major attraction of Meran.
All year round, there's a wide variety of offers for hikers, bikers and other sportspeople. Meran offers easy walks along the Passerpromenade or the famous Tappeinerweg, but also challenging excursions into the surrounding mountains (Meraner Höhenweg) and onto alpine peaks.
Mountain bikers and cyclists will enjoy the Passeirer Cycling Trail or taking the Train to Mals in the Vinschgau Valley, from where they can then pleasantly cycle back to Meran. The more difficult and challenging mountain-bike trails in the forests and mountains around Meran are well-known and famous as well.
There's even more for those who like sports: rafting, canyoning, paragliding, rock climbing, horse riding, you name it.
