I imagine how I’ll drive up from Merano, through fragrant forests and past verdant meadows until I get to Falzeben. Just the journey itself is an experience each time: the sun-kissed natural countryside astounds me time and again. Already I feel more relaxed. I feel free. The pure mountain air, the dreamlike views, the sounds and smells of Mother Nature do their best to help me leave all my worries behind. Everything here seems unimportant, and I can just be myself. Here, I have every possibility to experience the world around me. I can take leisurely walks on the Falzeben plateau or dare to undertake a strenuous alpine hike. I can enjoy delicious dumplings in a mountain hut or delight in the hotel’s exquisite cuisine. In winter, I can show off my abilities on the slopes of the skiing region Meran 2000 or have fun racing down the hill on a sledge. I am free of all constraints, free to simply choose pure relaxation. Nowhere else is it so easy for me to wind down as in Avelengo.

My wanderlust grows ever stronger and it doesn’t take long before it is finally appeased. I jump into my car and set off: on my way to the place of my dreams. To Avelengo.
