Apple-Crown Marling
Orchards and vineyards, heartfelt hospitality, apple blossom, a mild Mediterranean climate, splendid walking possibilities… All this makes Marling in the surroundings of Meran a particularly ravishing holiday destination.
The village is the starting point for delightful cycle experiences and romantic walking paths. Stroll along the High Route of Marling or the path along the ancient irrigation channel „Marlinger Waal“ with its 13 informative stations.
In the winter the five ski areas Schnals, Passeiertal, Meran 2000, Vigiljoch and Ultental lie within easy reach, offering attractive winter sports possibilities. Besides you find toboggan-runs, gorgeous nature for ski-touring, cross-country and snowshoe walks, topped with highly modern lifts and comfortable hotels in Marling in the environs of Meran in South Tyrol.
Castle Lebenberg
Historical centerpiece is the Church Maria Himmelfahrt, built within an extraordinarily beautiful setting offering a breathtaking view over the surrounding mountains. Also Castle Lebenberg above Tscherms is well worth a visit, as it is one of the most beautiful and charming residences in the area around Meran.
Beloved tradition ...
Marling loves its traditions as it proofs again and again on its various events; visit the Farmers Market, the Apple- or the Grape-Harvest or the wonderful „Apple-Crown of Marling“. During this event a carriage decorated with apples and carnations is the center of attention; this very carriage participates every year again in the parade during the Grape-Festival in Meran.
The probably most popular tradition is „Törggelen“. Wine-taverns, inns, restaurants and hotels in Marling and the surrounding villages Prissian, Lana, Dorf Tirol and Nals invite then to cozy snuggeries and serve wine, roasted chestnuts, speck and many other local delicacies. If you would like to experience this traditional village for yourself, find here the most beautiful hotel in Marling in South Tyrol!
