Extract from the Merano Travel Guides:
MERANO
(MERAN) an hour north by train from Bolzano, lies close to two great mountain ranges. The closest, the
Giogia di Tessa
(Texelgruppe), less than 10km away, is characterized by steep traverses across pastureland, with old snow still on the slopes in summer; watercourses irrigate the south-facing slopes, planted below with vines, peach and apple trees. Further west, the
Ortles
mountains - an unbelievable expanse of glaciers and rocky spurs - straddle the border with Valtellina and are included within the Parco Nazionale dello Stelvio, one of Italy's major national parks
