Algund, the holiday destination right in the pulse of Meran
A special feature of the garden village of Algund is its proximity to the spa town of Meran. Despite being able to spend a holiday right in the midst of nature, where you can relax from your stressful everyday routine, you are only a stone’s throw away from the well-known spa town of Meran. It can be reached by public transport within a few minutes and offers you a broad variety of leisure activities. The climate in Meran is mainly Mediterranean, encouraging the growth of plants such as palm trees, cypress trees, holm oaks, laurel, myrtle and Lebanon cedars. The Texel Group mountain range in the North and North-West protect the valley basin from the rain and cold winds. The annual average temperature is 11.5 °C and there are approximately 300 sunny days per year.

Biking in Algund and the surrounding area
In Algund and its surrounding area, there is a variety of opportunities to discover the beautiful landscape on a bike and enhance your health at the same time. You can cycle through fragrant vineyards and orchards with a racing, trekking or city bike or use a mountain bike for the more demanding forest and Alpine trails... It all comes in various grades of difficulty and gives you different challenges. A trip along the old Roman Emperor road, called the Via Claudia Augusta is particularly beautiful. According to a 2,000 year old story, this route, which stretched from the Adriatic Sea and the Po plain to the Alps and across to the Danube River, will find – and has found – a new awakening. A part of this route runs from the Reschen Pass to Algund near Meran and from there further south, constantly keeping in touch with the Etsch River. This is another true paradise for cyclists. Along the road, there are numerous towns and villages with many places worth visiting, such as fortresses and castles, waiting to be discovered. There are also places to stop for a bite to eat, for new strength on the continuing journey. The surrounding area can be discovered by bike and train. The modern Vinschger railway brings you (for example) to Mals in the Vinschgau, and from there you can cycle back to Algund. There are a number of hotels and guesthouses offering a free bike hire service, which includes mountain bikes. In addition, the tourist board offers mountain bikes, city, trekking and e-bikes, as well as e-bike helmets for hire.
