Places to go and people to see or is it places to be and tourists to avoid.

You can get away from the crowds or join the masses on the typical touristy sites.  You’ll have fun with the locals who can either be joyful and helpful or the complete opposite.  I will try to help with advice but more importantly, what you should see and what could/ should be avoided.

What a view! It's a hidden gem so don't tell the tourists. They've got a decent beer!

South Tyrol is a very popular tourist destination. Why not, there on average over 300 days of sunshine a year and a very agreeable weather system for each season of the year. This means a lot of tourists. Finding the right bar, hike or just a place to chill with family, that’s Bella Vita.

Fancy a swim?

You will always find a mountain lake if you are willing to take the walk and the plunge.  Swimming in a mountain lake at 1600m is something, if not for those who like the water warm.  Remember, Ben Nevis is 1341m!!

Places to be!

There are a variety of places to visit from mountain hikes and walks, climbing, botanical gardens or even the main towns and villages of South Tyrol
