Holidays in Naturns
Naturns is located just a quarter of an hour west of Meran, nestled in the impressive landscape of the Texel Group Nature Park. The municipal area stretches from the idyllic village of Plaus to the districts of Tabland, Tschirland and Staben. Whether you are looking for a varied family holiday with exciting experiences, active days of hiking, climbing and cycling, or soothing moments of tranquillity at the Naturns adventure spa – everyone will find their own personal highlight here.
Therefore, it is no wonder that the picturesque village in the midst of apple orchards is such a popular holiday destination. In and around the village there are available numerous biking and hiking trails for active vacationers, as well as worth seeing churches, castles and ruins.
Furthermore, the spa town Meran is not far from Naturns, but easily reachable by the popular “Vinschger Bahn” railway or even by a pleasant hike on the panoramic “Waalwege” paths along old irrigation channels.
The Vogeltenn Promenade in Naturns is ideal for a relaxing family walk.
