Unforgettable holidays in St. Martin in Passeier
When driving in to the beautiful Passeier valley from Meran you’ll first pass by a deep, narrow canyon, before it opens up to meadows and forests and allows a view on St. Martin in Passeier in South Tyrol. The little village gained fame through one of its sons: Andreas Hofer was born at the inn Sandwirt and as a true Tyrolean fought bravely against the French.
Tyrolean tradition still plays a very important role in Passeiertal: traditional costumes are worn with pride, processions, parish fairs etc. are celebrated with passion, steep meadows are mowed by hand, and Ranggl competitions, an amusing Tyrolean sport, are often carried out. St. Martin in Passeier has a wide offer of hiking paths in all levels of difficulty and altitudes, either along the valley or up into the high mountains of the Ötztaler and Stubaier Alps.
For motor cycling fans there is also a great variety: the curvy panorama roads up to the Jaufen pass and down to Sterzing on the other side are just as impressive as the road along the Passeier valley and into Pfossen valley.
In winter St. Martin in Passeier in South Tyrol doesn’t only have sledding options on offer, but also guided snow shoeing tours and courses in cross-country skiing. From here, skiers don’t have to travel far to the Schnalstaler glacier either! St. Martin in Passeier in South Tyrol is the ideal place to experience tradition and enjoy everyday life in South Tyrol!
