Travel guide to South Tyrol

South Tyrol is no longer a dusty holiday classic, but an attractive destination for all generations.
The historic cities of Bolzano, Merano, Bressanone and Brunico combine their Tyrolean origins with Italian accents. In the valleys between Ortler and Drei Zinnen, Brenner and Lake Caldaro, Ötztal Alps (yes, Ötzi from South Tyrol!) and Rosengarten, alpine farmers maintain traditions with their velvet costumes such as agriculture and local cuisine.
The book about the land between glaciers and vineyards contains many hiking suggestions and carefully documented mountain bike tours, half of which have GPS coordinates.
