Merano, the jewel of South Tyrol is a famous, elegant South Tyrolean health resort with a historic town centre, 324 metres above sea-level, in a beautiful setting where three valleys, the Vinschgau, the Etsch and the Passier, come together. The unusual geographical location – the town is sheltered to the north and east by high mountain ranges – is the reason for its mild Mediterranean climate. This enables a wide variety of colourful, Mediterranean and sub-tropical plants to thrive in the extensive parks and promenades of Merano, and its new Botanical gardens. The Merano area has much to offer sport-lovers, including fine tennis courts, two nearby golf courses, a famous race-course, rafting, paragliding, mountain biking, swimming-pools, including the new spa, an ice rink, a horse-riding and jumping school, a mini-golf course, and winter sports.
