Once harsh and barren, with the Dolomites (UNESCO World Heritage), where the mountaineering legend Reinhold Messner earned his spurs, and the eternal ice, where the 5000-year-old glacier mummy "Ötzi The Iceman" was found. Then, on the other hand in the south lovely, Mediterranean, with palm trees, cypresses, strawberry trees and even passion flowers, "where a gentle mild air fills the area," as Goethe already noted in 1786.The hilly landscape in the south is dominated by picturesque wine villages, imposing castles, numerous historic residences. Without mountains like Schlern, Rosengarten and Marmolata and without hearinKaltern’s local backyard mountain is the Mendel, which can be reached by the Mendel Cable Car. It is an ideal starting point for many hikes. Only 2 km south of Kaltern is Lake Kaltern, the warmest swimming lake in the Alps.In and around the village you can visit a large number of the best wineries and wine producers in South Tyrol.If you want to treat yourself to some fine food you will be spoiled for choice: from the quaint, rustic pub, to the typical Italian pizzeria and up to the Michelin star restaurant, they are all nearby.For years, South Tyrolean winemakers and chefs have been among the most awarded in Italy.Highlights are offered throughout the year: concerts and music festivals, culinary weeks and village festivals, traditional parades and demanding sporting events.g people mainly speak German, you might think to be in TuscanyShort descriptionOther : Non-smoking houseShort description 1Number of kitchens : 2Other rooms : wine cellar, saunaSurroundingNearby sports facilities : Bike tours, Canoeing, Climbing, Cross-country skiing, Fishing, Golf course, Ice skating, Indoor riding arena, Mountain climbing, Mountainbiking, Riding possibilities, Sailing, Skiing (alpin), Surfing, Tennis, ToboggenRental Facilities : Bicycle rental service, Boat rental service, Ski-, Snowboard, car rentalGarden and outdoorGarden facilities : Garden furniture provided, Grill, Playground equipmentOn-site leisure facilities : Outdoor swimming pool exclusive use, Sauna, Swimming pool, Table tennisService benefitsService facilities (may incur additional costs) : Cleaning service during your stay, Shopping service before arrival, Transfer service (airport etc)
