very close
The Fugger town Vipiteno. Only 12 km away from the Tenne Lodges. 9.5km from the Tenne Chalets.
A charming alpine town. You feel right at home. An inviting little town with almost 6,000 Sterzingers. Between the old town and the new town is the Zwölferturm and also the Obertorplatz. There you can relax and enjoy an aperitivo in the sun after a stroll in the shopping mile. In summer there are fine specialties at the farmer's market on Fridays. In Vipiteno you can stroll past beautiful town houses and marvel at the typical bay windows all year round. We recommend visiting the impressive churches, the town hall with the Gothic council hall, the Deutschordens house and the Multscher and town museum. Sterzing also invites you to a variety of events: Eisacktal food weeks, Easter market, lantern parties, dumpling festival, Christmas markets and much more.

The oldest town in Tyrol. There you can experience history in the midst of centuries-old buildings. Brixen Cathedral, the cloister, the garden "Herrengarten", the arcades, numerous exhibitions and events are just waiting to be discovered. In addition, Brixen advertises with 2,000 hours of sunshine a year. You should check it out right away with a fine glass of Sylvaner wine on the cathedral square.
To travel

Unforgettable: a day in Bolzano
Our provincial capital Bozen. Worth exploring.
What makes Bolzano so special? A unique mix of south and north. In Bolzano, the Mediterranean Sea and the Alps meet and become an irresistible combination. Different architectural styles – from colorful and soft to imposing and edgy. The arcades in the shopping mile and the fruit market are a perfect starting point for exploring the city. On foot, by bike or by public transport, Bolzano always shows its most beautiful side. In the Ötzi museum you can learn a lot of interesting facts about the glacier mummy. The surroundings with wineries, the Kohlern oasis of calm and the Rittner high plateau are also on our list of recommended places to visit.
In the valley Pustertal
Bruneck, known for lively trade and handicrafts.
The Stadtgasse in Bruneck is one of the most beautiful shopping streets in South Tyrol. But shopping isn't the only reason for a trip to the valley Pustertal. The city is a feast for the eyes: a wide valley basin surrounded by high mountains. Mentioned in a document since 1256 and soon the economic center of the valley in the Middle Ages. Meanwhile also known for events, culture and numerous sporting activities.
Air and garden
The spa town of Merano. Made famous by Empress Sissi.
In the 19th century, the therapeutic effectiveness of the air in Meran was discovered and soon the first guests arrived. In search of healing. And when the Austrian Empress Sissi came on vacation, the European aristocracy and the bourgeoisie could no longer be kept away from Meran. The magnificent buildings that were built back then can still be admired today. Meran is also known as a garden city. The Gardens of Castle Trauttmansdorff are among the most beautiful gardens in the world. A natural amphitheater surrounding the central lily pond with over 80 garden landscapes from around the world.
