The magic of spring in the Val Venosta/Vinschgau valley
The sun is shining brighter, and the days are getting longer. Birds are singing happily, and the first buds are reaching for the sky. A soft green carpet is spreading across the meadows and forests. Spring in Val Venosta/Vinschgau is oh so lovely!
Dreamy pink petals
It turns Meran & Environs and Val Venosta/Vinschgau into a stunning spring spectacle: apple blossom season. Depending on the variety of apples and the altitude, the beautiful buds bloom between late March and early May. Taking relaxing walks and riding bikes through the expansive orchards is a dream come true for anyone who loves spring.
Hiking tip: Mt Sole/Sonnenberg
Mt Sole/Sonnenberg truly lives up to its name (“Sun Mountain” in English). Its steep slopes, warmed by the sun, are home to a rich variety of plant life, from Mediterranean cypress and palm trees to steppe vegetation, mountain farm fields, and the Alpine summit region. In spring, hikers particularly appreciate the sunny trails, scenic panoramic routes, and challenging climbs. Here are some recommendations:
- Vogeltenn promenade
- Mt Sole/Sonnenberg panorama trail
- Wallburg path
- “Via Vinum Venostis Naturns” wine route
- Meran high mountain trail
