Meran/Merano - Meran and surroundings - Merano is famous for its Terme di Merano, a complex of therapeutic baths and treatments. The town neighbours the Parco Nazionale dello Stelvio and the spectacular Ortles mountain range. Some 6 km east of town, the Funivia Val di Nova cable car carries winter sports enthusiasts up to Piffling in Merano 2000, a small ski station.
The Parco Nazionale dello Stelvio offers fantastic walking possibilities at low altitudes in the pretty valleys of Val d’Ultimo, Val Martello and Val di Solda, and at high altitudes on spectacular peaks such as the Gran Zebrù, Cevedale and the Ortles, all part of the Ortles range. The glaciers permit year-round skiing and there are well-serviced runs at Solda and the Passo dello Stelvio (2757 m); the latter is the second highest pass in the Alps. Immediately south of the Passo dello Stelvio is the ski resort of Bormio, host to the 2005 Alpine World Skiing Championships. With the highest slopes at 3012 m, good snow is assured season-long.
The village of Solda, at the head of the Val di Solda, is a small ski resort and a base for walkers and climbers in summer.
The Val Martello is a good choice for low-altitude walks, with spectacular views of some of the park’s high peaks. It is a popular base for tackling the glaciers. In winter there is excellent cross-country skiing, and climbers can crawl up the valley’s frozen waterfalls from January to March.
