The Property — Eggbauer
Eggbauer is a family-run 3-star in the quiet South Tyrolean hamlet of Tscherms, a few minutes' walk from orchard paths. The lobby has the feel of a spruce-panelled farmhouse — plain wood, terracotta floors, a faint scent of apples from the owner's cellar. It suits walkers and couples who want a clean, no-frills base for exploring the Merano region, with a solid breakfast spread and an outdoor pool that looks straight at the Texelgruppe mountains.
Chronicles of Tscherms - Cermes
Tscherms began as a medieval farming settlement on the slopes above the Adige valley, first recorded in the 12th century. Its compact centre is built around a 13th-century parish church and a handful of arcaded lanes, largely rebuilt after a fire in 1883. Over the 20th century, the township grew slowly, retaining a German-speaking majority and a deep connection to apple and wine production. Today it feels like a residential satellite of Merano — quiet, green, reliant on the nightly train to Bolzano.
Best Time to Visit
Full Tscherms - Cermes guide →Best months
May, June, September: warm without the July-August heat, wildflowers on the Tappeinerweg, and fewer tourists in Merano's spa gardens.
Peak / festival surge
July–August: schools out, Italian families fill the valley, hotel prices climb 30–40%. The Merano Grape Festival (late September) also drives a short peak. Eggbauer typically raises rates by €15–20 per night.
Budget shoulder season
April and October: mild days, occasional rain, rooms at 20–25% discount. Most cable cars still run; the autumn foliage in the Venosta Valley is excellent.
Weather & packing
The Adige valley funnels winds, so a sudden hailstorm can hit even a bright June afternoon. Rule: always carry a light waterproof shell and a long-sleeve layer, even in midsummer.
Live City Briefing — Tscherms - Cermes
- The Meran–Algund cycle path extension is complete: you can now ride safely from Tscherms all the way to Merano station (15 minutes) without sharing roads.

- The local apple cooperative is celebrating its 125th anniversary with a small open-day at the depot on 28 June, offering tastings and orchard walks.
