View of Merano

Highlight • Viewpoint

There are so many routes to Merano - the ones that are a little higher up offer particularly good views. Like the Waalwege or the Taffinerweg. Fascinating insights into a city, an attitude to life or simply the amazing panorama.

Steinerner Steg (Stone Bridge) over the Passer, Merano

Highlight (Segment) • Bridge

The Steinerne Steg is an old bridge over the Passer in Merano in Burggrafenamt (South Tyrol). The two-arched bridge was built in 1616-17 in place of an older wooden bridge by the Brixen architect Andrä Tanner; she is now closed to traffic. The sometimes to be found assumption, the Italian name Ponte Romano pointed to a Roman predecessor, does not correspond to the historical facts: The name was invented in 1935 by the fascist authorities in the course of their Italianization campaign in South Tyrol. [2] In the Merano address book of 1929 is still Ponte di Pietra listed as a name.

Summer Promenade (Sommerpromenade) Merano

Highlight • Trail

On the south side of the Passer, from the Postbrücke bridge in the direction of the Passeiertal valley, lies the summer promenade. It is lined with large trees and other plant species such as Cedar of Lebanon, Giant Sequoias, Poplars and Pine species from different climate zones and is particularly suitable for a shady walk. Especially impressive is the promenade's development from a city park to a wild river floodplain: the further east you go, the closer you get to the Passer and its natural banks.

The Merano summer promenade was laid out around 1866 and leads along the Passer to the "Steinernen Steg" (Stone Bridge). In memory of Empress Elisabeth's many holidays in the spa town of Merano, there is a monument at the lower entrance to the summer promenade, which also marks the end point of the "Sissi Trail" to Trauttmansdorff Castle.

Steinerner Steg (Stone Bridge)

Highlight • Bridge

The bridge was built in 1617, unlike wooden bridges, the massive stone arches also withstood flooding. Thus, in the past, the Steinerne Steg was often the only crossing over the Passer. From here you can see far into the Gilfenklamm and even in midsummer it is pleasantly cool here!
