The Southern of South Tyrol is also called the vine route. This sounds like pure sun and promises you an unforgettable holiday. Guests coming from all directions enjoy spending their vacation by lakes and mountains.

The Southern of South Tyrol is offering both: glittering lakes and great summits of the mountain range called “Mendel”. The rocky landscape of the mountains “Mendel” represents the perfect background for the picturesque castles and vineyards of the Southern of South Tyrol. Visit for example the Castles of “Hocheppan” and “Sigmundskron”, two very manorial places with beautiful backyards and surrounded by apple trees, vineyards and other fruit orchards. This kind of landscape is only known from the South of Italy remembering citrus orchards or olive trees. Therefore the Southern of South Tyrol is also called the “South Tyrolean Wine Road”. The smooth hills which are covering the whole landscape are the perfect ground for the fantastic castles and palaces. Just alone the village of Eppan counts over 65 castles and 180 chateaus.

Another place to mention is the unknown backside of the “Mendel” mountains, famous for its exquisite apples. This interesting area belongs to the province of Trentino, but has a rather South Tyrolean mind.
