Tirolo

The eye-catcher of the Mediterranean-Alpine municipality of Tirolo is Castel Tirolo, the former seat of the Counts of Tyrol

Tirolo extends from the valley basin via the lower mountain range of the Kuechelberg up to the Lakes of Sopranes at 2,500 m a.s.l. and boasts some 2,500 inhabitants. The area of Tirolo is full of contrast and characterised by cypresses, palm trees and oleander on the one hand, while in higher altitudes coniferous trees and alpine flowers grow. Not for nothing also Empress Sissi was enchanted by this village. The climate is rather Mediterranean with less rain and many hours of sun, which is favourable for the cultivation of grapevines.

Not only its location close to the Gruppo di Tessa nature park, but also the vast network of hiking paths including some 70 km of well-marked trails such as the Alta Via Meranese and the trail of the Sopranes lakes make Tirolo a first-class destination for those who love hiking. Also recommendable is a visit to the Muthof farms as well as Castel Tirolo with its provincial museum.

By the way, the whole year round Tirolo offers theme holidays for hikers, gourmets, people interested in culture and many more target groups. The cultural festival “Tiroler Kulturfrühling”, the Christmas Market at Castel Tirolo, the Soirées in the castle and VinoCulti make your holidays in Tirolo a lasting experience.
