Fresh alpine lakes & cosy warm swimming pools!
When hiking around the holiday region Merano-Tirolo and surroundings you'll see fresh alpine rivers, imposing waterfalls, and green to deep blue alpine lakes. Only the very brave jump into Lago Lungo Lake or one of the 11 Sopranes Lakes in the Tessa Group Nature Park in mid summer. More comfortable however, is a swim in the pool at Immenhof or in one of the numerous public pools in the surroundings like the oasis at the waterpark in Tirolo, the adventure pool in Naturno, the Lido pool in Merano, the outdoor pool in Scena or in Lagundo. Passionate swimmers will visit the Meranarena, where you'll find numerous pools of various sizes for swim training or free-style swimming.
Only a stone's throw away – a 10 minute walk from Immenhof – you'll find the highlight of all pools, the 5 ha large Thermal Baths of Merano. This attraction comprises a 50,000 m² large thermal park, a unique place for recreation and quietness in the city centre of Merano.
