The Property — Feldegg
The Feldegg is a modest, family-run 3-star on the edge of Lana’s apple orchards, with clean South Tyrolean lines and a terrace looking straight up at the Texelgruppe mountains. It’s quiet, unshowy, and practical: think wood-panelled breakfast room, a small pool, and the kind of reception desk where the owner might hand you a hiking map and a free apple juice. Suits couples and older solo walkers who want straightforward comfort—not romance or luxury—and easy access to the Merano high-altitude trail network.
Chronicles of Lana
Lana began as a Roman farming settlement called Lana al Ponte, clustered around a bridge over the Adige. Its medieval core, still visible around St. Mary's Church, developed around vineyards and apple orchards—a tradition that continues to define the landscape. Under the Habsburgs, Lana became a market town and later a quiet spa retreat, enriched by nearby Merano’s Belle Époque tourism boom. Today, it’s a solidly middle-class Italian-speaking town with a German-speaking minority, best known for its apple exports and as the base for the Waalweg irrigation-trail network.
Best Time to Visit
Full Lana guide →Best months
June, September, early October: warm days for hiking, fewer crowds than July–August, and the apple harvest colours in autumn. June has long daylight after dinner.
Peak / festival surge
July and August are the busiest, when Italian and German families fill Lana’s camps and hotels. Prices at the Feldegg typically rise 20–30% over June, driven by school holidays and the Merano Grape Festival (late September spills into early October).
Budget shoulder season
May and late October offer discounts of 15–25% at the Feldegg, with spring blossoms in May and crisp hiking days in October. Midweek stays in these months are particularly quiet.
Weather & packing
July afternoons in Lana can hit 32°C, but evenings drop sharply as cool air funnels off the mountains. Pack a warm fleece or sweater—even in summer—and always carry a rain shell for sudden afternoon thunderstorms.
Live City Briefing — Lana
- Lana's main bridge (Ponte Lana) closes for repairs from 1 June 2026 until 30 September 2026; expect a signed detour via the SS44, adding 10 minutes to car travel from Merano.
- The Meran High Mountain Trail (Meraner Höhenweg) has a new rainwater-fed hut, the Larchwiese Hütte, opened May 2025; it offers simple overnight stays with hot showers but no power sockets.
- Apple season begins in earnest mid-August, so July visitors see orchards in early fruit; several Lana farms now offer 'apple walks' (in German and Italian only)—book at the tourist office.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Feldegg, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the second floor overlooking the rear garden rather than Spitalgasse. These rooms get morning light and are furthest from the street noise that comes with a main-road address.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the first floor that face Spitalgasse — the street-level windows pick up foot traffic, delivery vehicles, and the occasional church bell from the nearby parish. Also skip any room directly above the main entrance where the lift shaft runs; the mechanism hums until 11pm.
Best views
Rooms facing south or east look over the town rooftops towards the Mendel massif; rooms at the back (north/west) give a green view of apple orchards and the Lana Valley. Spitalgasse itself is a practical street, not scenic.
Quietest floors
Second floor is the quietest — above street clatter but below the third floor where the roof terrace (if any) might attract late-night guests. The third floor can get heat from the uninsulated attic in summer.
🔊 Noise notes
Spitalgasse is a secondary thoroughfare — expect morning delivery lorries from 6am, plus pedestrian chatter outside the hotel's ground-floor bar-restaurant until 22:00. Sunday mornings are dead quiet. The church tower nearby chimes on the quarter-hour.
Insider tips
1. If you drive, ask about free parking at the hotel — many 3-star hotels in Lana have a small rear lot; Spitalgasse has limited on-street parking. 2. Request a room with a balcony on the second floor and confirm it's not above the kitchen extractor — the bar's vent runs until 10pm.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Exchange cash at banks or post offices for the best rates; avoid airport and tourist bureau kiosks which take a large commission.
Visa and Mastercard widely accepted in shops and restaurants; contactless and mobile pay (Apple Pay, Google Pay) common in supermarkets and cafes. Small bills useful for markets and bars.
Not expected but appreciated: round up the bill in restaurants (5-10% for great service), give a few euros to taxi drivers and hotel porters.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →Espresso at the bar — €1.00 to €1.20, standing at the counter is always cheaper than sitting.
Panini or pizza slice from a bakery or deli — €5 to €7 with a drink.
Pizza and a beer at a local pizzeria — around €12 for a main plus drink.
Look for 'panificio' or 'forno' in town centre for cheap bread-based snacks; no specific street-food market in this quiet residential area.
Supermarkets like Conad, Eurospin, or Lidl (on the outskirts) are common in the Val Venosta region; a small Coop is often in the village.
Affordable chain stores (e.g., OVS, Upim) and a weekly market (usually Thursday or Saturday mornings in Lana town square) for basic clothing.
Bus within Lana and to nearby towns — single ride €1.50 or day pass €5. From the airport (Bolzano), take bus 144 to Lana for about €3.80.
1. Buy a South Tyrol Mobil Card for unlimited bus/train travel if staying more than 2 days. 2. Cook from supermarket supplies rather than eating out every meal. 3. Fill water bottles at public taps — tap water is excellent and free.

💡 Under 2 euros suggested donation. The basement has a reconstructed lathe workshop. Closed Mondays. Allow 30 minutes.
💡 Happens Tuesday and Friday mornings 08:00-12:30. Go early for the best apple strudel from the bakery van. Bring cash, few card machines.
💡 Look for the faded fresco of St. Christopher on the south wall—locals say touching it brings safe travels. The keys are at the tourist office if locked.
💡 Start at the tourist office for a free route map. The trail is wheelchair-friendly for the first 1.5km. Best in spring when the fruit trees blossom.
💡 Check their noticeboard for free evening talks or film screenings (usually in German/Italian). They also sell second-hand books cheap.
💡 Go late afternoon for low sun on the frescoes and fewer crowds. The path from the main square is a short, steep cobbled climb.
💡 Combine with a swim at the free section of the Lido di Lana (open June-August). The path extends to Meran (8km north) if you want a longer walk.
💡 Start at the sports field (via Südtirol) and walk clockwise—you'll get the best light on the Dolomites at sunset. Takes about 40 minutes.
