South Tyrol, Italy — also known as Südtirol or Alto Adige — is a wildly fascinating marvel hidden amid the peaks and valleys of the Italian Alps. A mountain-blessed region teeming with crumbling castles, cliff-clinging vineyards and mirror-still lakes nestled beneath the thundering Dolomites, this unspoiled gem continues to inspire more ‘wow’ moments than anywhere else we have roamed.

So much beauty abounds here you can be forgiven if unsure where to fix your gaze. But South Tyrol’s enthralling sights are only part of its allure. Here, you can experience la dolce vita and gemütlichkeit all at once. The region is enlaced with eclectic culture. Italian, German, Austrian and Ladin (a people native to remote valleys in the Dolomites) influences entwine throughout — steeping the land with a delightful variety of cuisine, architecture, history and traditions.
