Apple-shaped dreams in Lana
Embark on a rose-red sea of apple blossoms, the air filled with an infatuating scent, in South Tyrolean Lana. The charming „apple village“ in the environs of Meran, the so-called „gate to the South“, unites alpine and Mediterranean flair offering various possibilities for sporting aces, culture loves, hedonists and families alike.
The intelligently designed road-net is a paradise for walkers and bikers offering a unique insight to the wonderful mountains around Lana. Incomparably charming are the path Brandis along the ancient irrigation channel, the wild gorge of Gaul or the nearby pass Vigiljoch.
Culinary and musical delights
Spring in Lana is a season of culinary delights. Highlights are the „Farmer's Mile of Delights“, the „Blossom-Festival“ and the „Wild-Herb-Days“. Gourmets can participate from May to October in different gala-evenings around Lana and Meran and enjoy first-class and exquisite palate teasers. The events are held on Castle Schenna, in the enchanting gardens of Castle Trauttmansdorff in Meran or other exciting locations.

Summer is the time for cultural events, festivals and concerts. The „Long Thursdays“ are a popular tradition in Lana, when shops remain open till late.
