Suggested programme:<br />
Day 1:<br />
Arrive at your hotel, your home for the next four nights.<br />
Day 2:<br />
After a relaxing breakfast travel to the town of Bolzano where<br />
you will be met by your city guide. Discover the highlights and<br />
secrets of the medieval town centre, where the cold North meets<br />
the warm south. Bolzano is the capital of the Alto Adige region<br />
and is famous for its town museum which houses the 5,000 year<br />
old mummy – Otzi (the ice man). Bolzano is also a wine-lovers<br />
paradise with many vineyards mixed with the flowering orchards,<br />
so before returning to your hotel you will be able to enjoy a wine<br />
tasting of some of the region’s best wines.<br />
Day 3:<br />
Today we recommend a trip to the city and region of Meran where<br />
you can enjoy palm and olive trees in the valleys and glaciers on<br />
the surrounding mountains. Meran is a town of contrasts which<br />
invites you to explore its streets and squares. Enjoy a guided tour<br />
of the city or take a stroll at your own pace or just sit and enjoy a<br />
coffee and cake in one of the cafés. In the afternoon we recommend<br />
a visit to the spectacular gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle<br />
before returning to your hotel.<br />
Day 4:<br />
A scenic tour of the local countryside is our recommendation for today.<br />
Visit the Brenta Dolomite region and the towns of Madonna di<br />
Campiglio, one of Italy’s top ski resorts, the<br />
Brenta Natural Park with its waterfall and<br />
the Lake of Molveno. On your trip you will have plenty of photo opportunities<br />
for spectacular pictures of jagged snow-capped peaks,<br />
luscious green meadows and pretty towns and villages.<br />
Day 5:<br />
Depart homeward.<br />
from E 205.-<br />
TIPS: Autumn is a time of festivals in South Tyrol, so why not<br />
plan your trip to coincide with one of the following:<br />
The Sterzing Dumpling festival. Held in September this is a<br />
delight for all gourmets. Try the different traditional and unusual<br />
dumplings such as bacon, serviette and wild mushroom.<br />
South Tyrol is famous for its smoked bacon and in October<br />
you can enjoy not just a plate of cheese and bacon but also the<br />
freshly harvested apples and grapes of the region – all washed<br />
down with some of the best wine.<br />
