Whether for a relaxed stroll, a day of shopping or a cultural excursion – Bolzano is one of South Tyrol’s most beautiful cities and is easily accessible from the Kohlbrenner Lodges.
South Tyrol’s diverse capital.
Bolzano is unique. The city combines the best of two worlds: the laid-back feel of the South and the authenticity of the Alps. While vineyards and mountain peaks shape the scenery around the city, the old town lanes invite you to stroll, linger and discover.
Stroll through the historic arcades, enjoy an aperitif in a sunny square, or let yourself be inspired by the small boutiques, delicatessens and cafés.
