Naturno, Val Venosta with Merano and environs
THE TOWN OF NATURNO - ALPINE WELLNESS HOLIDAYS IN MERANO AND ENVIRONS
About three km east of Ciardes is Naturno, the gateway to Val Venosta, just before the wilderness that is Val Senales. Visitors will be amazed at the
vitality of the village centre with its shops, boutiques, delicatessens and small coffee houses. Contrasting with the bustling atmosphere in the town centre, Naturno in the holiday district of Merano and environs also lends itself to almost limitless
hiking and
trekking trips in the total freedom of nature.
Explore Monte Sole in Val Venosta with its barren vegetation. Take a hike through the highlands of the
Gruppo del Tessa nature park or perhaps a leisurely bike ride down the old Roman road, the
Via Claudia Augusta.
HIGHLIGHTS IN THE EVENTS CALENDAR
Among the most important events unfolding during the course of the year are the extreme Ötzi Alpine Marathon Triathlon, the Starlight Cuisine: Night of Lights and the Riesling Days. Culture lovers will be interested to know that amidst the orchards in Naturno there is the Church of San Procolo with its museum annex. The church houses the oldest frescoes in the entire German-speaking world.
