The town of Bolzano is nestled in the middle of the mountains and is a place where Italian and Austrian cultures come together. Here you can take in the sweeping views over the Dolomites from the cable car and hike on the largest mountain meadow in Europe, the Alpe di Sius. If you fancy something more relaxed, take a stroll through the atmospheric city centre and settle down on a terrace for an apple strudel washed down with Aperol.

Day 1 – Arrival Bolzano

Today you’ll arrive in Bolzano, where the inhabitants are said to be among the happiest in Italy. It is easy to see why, with the city’s friendly atmosphere and views out to the mountains. You will sleep in a simple hotel with comfortable rooms, selected for its central location in the lively centre. Settle down on one of the terraces, look up at the mountain peaks and order a refreshing beer or a local Italian wine.

Day 2 – Cable car to the Alpe di Siusi

It is now time to stop simply looking at the mountains and jump in one of the cable cars that sweep up the mountain to the Seiser Alm, Alpe di Siusi: Europe’s largest alpine plain. With our handy navigation app you can take a walk at your own pace, passing mountain villages and huts while overlooking the immense mountain range of the Dolomites. Make a stop for lunch on the terrace of a mountain restaurant and enjoy the views before heading to Bolzano’s Archaeological Museum to admire the famous 5,000-year-old ice mummy Ötzi.
