In the spot where the ski pistes blaze a trail down towards the valley on the slopes of the Catinaccio and hiking paths and bike trails tempt you upwards, there are truly legendary tales of holidays and adventures waiting to happen – yes, literally! After all, Carezza is the Realm of King Laurin! And of the Lago di Carezza water mermaid. And of hikers, mountain bikers, sledgers and skiers: action-seeking outdoor adventurers! Yet, genuine nature lovers and mountain enthusiasts will love it here too, in the midst of the most unspoilt of all mountain landscapes. Then there are the innkeepers just waiting to serve up delicious fare from South Tyrol! And views to lose yourelf in. Carezza is the playground for real fans of the Dolomites!
The Eggental valley is located in South Tyrol, in the heart of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Whether by train, bus, car or plane, the Eggental valley can be reached in many different ways.
Coming to South Tyrol by train is both relaxing and environmentally friendly: just sit back, read a book and enjoy the passing landscape – stress-free.
Get on the coach, watch the landscape go by, or take a nap... your holiday will start even before your arrival, as the bus will very often take you right to your accommodation.
You can reach the Eggental valley by car from the A22 Brenner autobahn: from the north, follow Innsbruck-Brennero-Bolzano Nord/Eggental, while from the south follow Verona-Bolzano Nord/Eggental. You can reach the Eggental valley and your accommodation from the Bolzano Nord/Eggental exit in around 20 minutes.
South Tyrol airport is located at Bolzano. The closest airports are Innsbruck to the north, Venice and Verona to the south. Flight connections are extensive and allow travellers to travel independently. South Tyrol is less than two hours by car from Verona and Innsbruck.
