Active with the family through Italy

If you talk about a successful hiking holiday that truly has the right experience for every active holidaymaker, then you are in good hands in northern Italy. South Tyrol guarantees plenty of feel-good moments for young and old. Because the mountains in this region have a lot to offer: after all, a large part of the Alps belongs to northern Italy. The highest Italian mountain is the Gran Paradiso with a height of over 4,000 metres, only beaten by Monte Bianco or Mont Blanc, as it is called outside of Italy. Even if hikers with kids are not out and about in alpine terrain, these facts clearly show why South Tyrol is a hiking paradise. There are also countless hiking paths for families, always accompanied by wonderful views of the massive mountains. The mild climate promises a wonderful family holiday experience on a hiking holiday without luggage in Italy.

Mediterranean landscapes & rustic huts

The landscapes of northern Italy are a real adventure playground for families: varied Waalwege, rolling vineyards and colourful orchards create a backdrop that makes every trip special. When you take the cable car up high, the little hikers' eyes light up. Practice and family climbing routes offer fun and excitement along the way. The rustic alpine huts invite you to take a pleasant break, and the Mediterranean climate provides ideal conditions for hiking almost all year round.

Italian way of life

Italy is known for its warmth – and families in particular are welcomed with open arms everywhere. Child-friendly trattorias, ice cream parlours on almost every corner and lively town centres make every stage of the journey a little adventure. Whether it's a swim in Lake Reschen, a visit to the famous Juval Castle or a gelato in Merano: culture, enjoyment and fun can be easily combined in South Tyrol.

South Tyrol for families
