Surroundings
We would like to offer you a brief overview of the possible destinations reachable from Perwanger Hof. However, this is just a small selection, and many other places deserve to be discovered and visited and are often easily reachable by train from Auer/Ora. Here’s a little taster…
Bolzano / Bozen
Bozen/Bolzano is definitely worth a visit. This is the city where, in addition to “Ötzi”, the world’s most famous mummy, you can visit a charming old city centre. A walk under the arcades, a coffee in Walther Platz/Piazza Walther and a visit to the Museum of Modern Art are highly recommended. The summer season is characterised by film and music festivals and other cultural events.
Meran
Meran/Merano is a popular resort spa. The Austrian Empress Sissi was a regular guest of the town who came to take the waters. Today Meran/Merano is particularly famous for two points of interest: the Trauttmansdorff gardens and the spa complex. The latter is a warm haven on cold winter days, while the gardens are absolutely stunning in the spring and summer.
Trento
Trento is a beautiful city and is just a half-hour drive from Perwanger Hof. In terms of culture, architecture and shopping it has a very Italian feel, which differs from bilingual Bozen/Bolzano. However, the German and Tyrolean influence is felt especially in its architecture. For those who want to stop off in classic northern Italy, Trento is certainly a good choice.
Kalterersee / Lago di Caldaro
Lake Kalterer/Caldaro is only 5 minutes away from Perwanger Hof and is an aquatic paradise for young and old. Throughout the summer season the water temperature is very pleasant and regular checks show that the water quality is very close to that of drinking water. The more daring start bathing already in April and can go on to mid-October … reminiscent of dips in the North Sea.
Lake Kalterer/Caldaro is also our favorite swimming destination, which is why we can’t talk about it without enthusiasm … go there and you’ll understand why.
Lake Garda
Perwanger Hof is the ideal departure point for a day trip to one of the most famous lakes in northern Italy. Riva, the northernmost town of the lake, is about an hour away. The lake offers many possibilities: walk along the lake shore, enjoy a good pizza or fish specialties, try the mountain bike Eldorado, do some rock climbing or go on a hike, drive around the lake in a convertible, explore the small villages around the lake, do a bit of shopping, and, and, and …
Lake Garda is a great destination for a successful day out for the whole family. If you want more information about Lake Garda, please contact us, we are real experts, especially when it comes to bike routes.
