Mountain bonfires: born of faith, carried on by tradition. If you look at the South Tyrolean mountains after dark on the Sunday after Corpus Christi or the third Sunday after Pentecost, you can see them clearly: Christian symbols such as hearts, crosses or the letters IHS, formed from a multitude of individual fires.

There are places that touch. Not loud, not intrusive - but with a quiet power that lingers. The Tschögglberg high plateau with the villages of Hafling and Vöran and the Meran 2000 hiking area is one of them. Nestled between alpine pastures, forests and peaks, this is a natural and adventure area that will still be full of surprises waiting to be discovered in 2025. We took a look around and found five things you shouldn't miss in 2025. And we promise that these five things will be the moments you take home with you with joy in your heart.

For centuries the weather crosses rose stoically into the skies, mostly in lofty locations in the mountains that were visible from a distance.
