Meran 2000, not far from the Hotel Burggräflerhof
Look up in Meran and you’ll spot them from nearly every angle: the wide slopes of Meran 2000. A high plateau that’s been part of the region’s heart and horizon for generations – full of trails and light in summer, tranquil and white in winter. Just minutes from the Burggräflerhof, another world begins up there: clearer, wider, slower.
Summer at our accommodation near Meran 2000
On warm days, many guests head for the heights. The cable car whisks you from the valley up to the mountain in minutes – up where the air is cooler and paths wind through Alpine meadows and larch forests. Whether walking, mountain climbing, or simply taking a breather at a mountain hut, up here it’s not about performance but about the journey itself. Your gaze drifts across the Ivigna/Ifinger and out over the Adige/Etschtal valley. The huts serve simple fare: bread dumplings, soup, and homemade cake – all you need for a lovely summer’s day.
Winter: snow, skiing, and fun
When the first snow arrives, Meran 2000 transforms into a family-friendly, perfectly sized ski resort – ideal for those seeking adventure. A few lifts, sunny slopes, and everything within easy reach. Guests of the Burggräflerhof treat it as a winter playground, with options including skiing, snowshoeing through silent forests, or hurtling down the natural toboggan run. And if you’re after nothing more than the crunch of fresh snow underfoot and a bit of peace, the high trails deliver in spades.
Meran 2000: for a holiday in a class of its own
From Obermais, the valley station is just a few minutes away. The cable car sweeps you straight up – no fuss, no lengthy schlep. At the top, the town spreads out below you, and for a few hours, the world retreats. That’s when it hits you: Meran’s true magic lies in how swiftly you ascend – and how quickly you find yourself blissfully calm.
From the Burggräflerhof, it’s only an eight-minute walk to the bus stop, where direct buses to Meran 2000 run every 20 minutes – then, after a 10-minute cable car ride, you’re in the heart of the mountains, ready to hike, ski, or simply soak it all in.
