Mountain holiday in South Tyrol, Italy

Whether in the Merano region or in the Dolomites: Exercise in the mountains is life. And even more so: Quality of life! What frees the mind more than a walk in the morning light, a bike ride among the fir trees or a sun salutation in a flower garden? And why do we all too often forget that being active not only moves the body but also the heart? Too busy, too far, too tired: At our active and spa hotels in the Italian mountains, we see things differently. We love to move together, we are passionate hiking guides and enthusiastic mountain fans who like to share their experiences. Come on an unforgettable mountain holiday in South Tyrol, Italy: We look forward to accompanying you!

What can I do on an active holiday in South Tyrol?

From green valleys and majestic peaks to alpine meadows, lakes, and fragrant forests, the South Tyrolean mountains offer an incredible variety of outdoor activities. Hikers can enjoy sunny summer trails or explore sparkling winter landscapes, while mountain bikers will find routes and trails at every altitude. If you visit the Italian mountains for a holiday in winter, you can make the most of perfectly groomed ski slopes and snowboard runs under bright blue skies.

South Tyrol is also ideal for a gentler kind of active holiday. Whether you prefer starting your day with outdoor yoga or reconnecting with nature through forest bathing, you'll always find the perfect place to slow down and recharge.

Are the Alps and Dolomites the same?

No. The Dolomites are a mountain range within the Alps. They form part of the Southern Alps and are renowned for their dramatic peaks, unique rock formations, and spectacular landscapes in northern Italy.
They are among the holiday regions where you'll find our Vitalpina Hotels: places where nature is close, tranquility is within reach, and everyday life feels a world away.

Where should I spend my mountain holiday in Italy?

That depends entirely on whether you're planning your mountain holiday in Italy for summer or winter, and whether you prefer staying closer to the valley or right under the summits. The South Tyrolean mountains, in northern Italy, have something to suit every taste.
Our Vitalpina Hotels are located throughout the region, making it easy to find the perfect base for every preference and activity. What unites us is our close connection to nature, our passion for outdoor activities, hosts who are also certified hiking guides, and quality standards that make us the ideal choice for your mountain holiday in Italy.

What services do your Vitalpina active & spa hotels in the Italian mountains offer?

Our Vitalpina active & spa hotels in the Italian mountains offer at least three guided hikes every week, including at least one led personally by the host. In addition to hiking, we provide a range of gentle outdoor activities and place great importance on helping guests experience the region and its natural surroundings on a deeper level, from local cuisine to wellness experiences. Further services include hiking and tour recommendations, a hiking library, complimentary equipment rental, and a transfer service.
