Blossoming forth through the power of nature
Spring in South Tyrol: Experience energetic days
Snow-covered mountain peaks and Alpine meadows in delicate green, mild rays of sunshine, and a subtle violet fragrance – the diversity of spring is an inspiring time. From March onwards, nature around the Gnollhof awakens, the first heralds of spring announcing the end of a long winter.
Wide awake and cheery. A morning walk through dewy grass or a few stretching exercises on the soft forest floor revive you to the tips of your toes. Sense your spirit come to life. Then have a good breakfast with vitamin-rich, wholesome products in the dining room with its panoramic view. Would you like to express your joie de vivre to the outside world? Then do so. With facial treatments based on aloe vera, you can enliven your skin after its winter rest to give it a youthful appearance.

Tips to experience culture
Vineyards and orchards have been enriched by the scent of flowers and fresh colours. Easy walks and hikes in the valley are now an intense experience, as is a visit to the historic towns of Brixen and Klausen.
Klausen, a town of artists
Family-run inns with homemade South Tyrolean cuisine and small shops line the medieval alleys; colourful house facades create a vibrant picture. Klausen enjoys a reputation as a small town of artists, which was immortalised by Albrecht Dürer in one of his masterpieces. Tip: A hike to the Paterhügel or the Säben Monastery promise the best view of the town.
Brixen, picturesque and cheerful
Encircled by vineyards and orchards, and protected from cold winds by the mountain range to the north – it is not for nothing that Brixen is called the ‘Gateway to the South’ and was already a popular residence for bishops in the Middle Ages. The baroque cathedral and the Hofburg still dominate the townscape today, as do the chic cafés and boutiques, which invite you to stroll through the arcades.
Schloss Trauttmansdorff
The most beautiful gardens in Italy, the Gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle in Merano display the lavish abundance of spring. You can easily reach there in less than an hours’ drive.
