Active vacation
Bicycling lovers are well taken care of at Hotel Heide. You will find a bike garage at your disposal on our site. And the biking path along the Adige River drives less than 100m away past our house.
On this route, you can go from Resia Pass all the way to Verona, passing by Lake Garda.
For hikers, we have programs and information available on tours in the surrounding area: through vineyards and orchards, along the ancient water channels of Merano, in the beautiful Dolomites, in the Bletterbach gorge…
Last but not least, bikers are also very welcome in our house. Hotel Heide is a perfect starting point for motorbike tours in the Dolomites, in the Trentino region and as far as Lake Garda (less than one hour away).
Blooming South Tyrol
While snow still covers the ground in other places, southern South Tyrol is mostly already in full blossom. On the south faces of the Alps, the sun quickly wins the upper-hand, opening a broad variety of options for outdoor activities.
In the springtime, Ora / Auer´s calendar is also very engaging.
Spring and Easter concerts, various types of wine-related events, Maypole celebrations, and other parties hosted on the Alpine meadows are to celebrate the upcoming summer.
But spring also means asparagus time! From April to the end of May you won´t want to miss the culinary delights fashioned around fresh local asparagus.
Greeting the Summer
Thanks to the unbelievable variety of services and leisure offers at Hotel Heide, being bored won´t be an option. Great outdoor swimming-pools, beautiful lakes, tennis courts, local cultural traditions, and a variety of museums offer all kinds of activities.
Spending your summer vacation in South Tyrol means you will have countless options for outdoor activites in the beautiful surrounding nature. But you can of course choose between an active vacation or a relaxing one… or even a mix of both.
Autumn & the Harvest Time
It is harvest time in golden South Tyrol. And certainly one of the most beautiful seasons. It is then, that South Tyrolean gastronomy specialties are back again: Apples, chestnuts, “Schüttelbrot”, local cheese, and Grappa. You will find all of them at once at a “Toerggelen meal”.
And, of course, it is also time for a new year of South Tyrolean wines! Twenty-five different varieties of grapes are grown in the surrounding fields, on only 5,000 hectares of land. South Tyrol provides a beautiful experience in autumn too. A must-see and a must-taste!
