Even in bad weather, you can look forward to a variety of exciting places and activities:

 

Gampen Bunker – The Museum in the Defensive Wall


Located directly on the Gampen Pass, one of South Tyrol’s largest bunker complexes stretches out. Right at the summit of the 1939 completed state road to the Gampen Pass, the extensive bunker system is situated. It was planned as a second defensive barrier to prevent an invasion of Italy by the German Reich. Almost unnoticed by the local population, endless tunnels were driven into the mountain. The exhibition features historical photographs showing the construction of the road over the Gampen Pass from 1935-1939. Additionally, there are information and plans about the bunker and the so-called Alpine Wall.

The climate inside the Gampen Bunker is excellent for enjoying the flavor of “Monte Mais Kofel” cheese made from Nonsberg meadow milk. The “Bunker Cheese” matures in this special environment.

 

Therme Meran

The Meran Thermal Baths are open 365 days a year and offer 15 indoor pools open year-round and 10 outdoor pools in summer, a wonderfully relaxing sauna world with a beautiful outdoor area, the MySpa with exclusive wellness treatments, and stylishly designed relaxation zones—a perfect little escape from everyday life.

 

Erlebnistherme Naturns

Whether as a cool-down on a sunny day or just to relax, the Erlebnistherme Naturns is ideal for the whole family.

Here, you’ll find an outdoor adventure pool with a cozy 30°C, a 75-meter-long slide, a small children’s pool, and a large, terraced sunbathing lawn with a playground. Inside, kids can enjoy the children’s play area, test the 51-meter-long slide, or drift along the current channel. Since 2022, some pools are filled with thermal water: the thermal whirlpool, the thermal waterfall, the thermal palm, and the thermal cold pool in the sauna area. The mineralized thermal water supports regeneration, health stabilization, and well-being.
Those seeking peace can relax in the covered area on the bubble lounger or unwind on the massage bed and in the saline pool.

The sauna area with Finnish sauna, steam bath, and Kneipp basin offers relaxation after an active day.
