Where is it warm in South Tyrol in summer?
In the valleys and towns of South Tyrol, it can get quite hot during the day with temperatures of over 30 °C. In Bozen, for example, it is usually a little hotter than in Meran, so Meran is a good choice for those who like it warm but not too hot.
Those who like it a little cooler and are looking forward to a summer holiday in the mountains will feel at home in the higher mountain valleys. In Hochpustertal or in the upper Vinschgau Valley, temperatures usually only reach a maximum of 25 °C in midsummer.
