Advent in South Tyrol is something truly special. Nestled within the Winter landscape of the South Tyrolean mountains, the pre-Christmas season at Hotel Hohenwart in Schenna becomes a feast for the senses. Cosy evenings, sparkling lights, and the joyful anticipation of Christmas make this time of the year especially enchanting. Discover how diverse and atmospheric this season can be with us – from romantic Christmas Markets and the magical park of lights Lumagica to Winter sports at the Meran 2000 ski area.
Advent magic at the Christmas Markets
South Tyrol’s Christmas Markets are renowned for their romantic atmosphere and traditional stalls. Just a short walk from the hotel, you will find the Meran Christmas Market – one of the most beautiful and atmospheric markets in the region. Here, you can browse handmade gifts, taste South Tyrolean specialities, and savour mulled wine – the perfect place to immerse yourself in the festive spirit. Smaller markets in the area, such as the Farmers’ Advent at Hasenegg in Schenna (999 m), the charming Sterntaler Christmas Market in Lana, or the enchanting Forst Christmas Forest, offer equally unique experiences and highlight the romantic side of Advent in South Tyrol. The Bolzano Christmas Market, the largest in South Tyrol, is also just a short drive away and delights visitors with its festive flair.
