Nalles village

The Valle dell’Adige Cycle Path leads from the provincial capital past the “Rose Village” of Nalles and takes you all the way to Merano

The centre of the municipality of Nalles has grown on a debris cone between the mountain and the valley. The love to detail and traditions that accompanied the village in times past can still be felt today. Numerous mansions and castle-like buildings line the streets, with rose beds in between, giving Nalles its charm, colours and the nickname "Rose Village". Nalles village is the southernmost village of the Burgraviato area and the northernmost village on the Wine Road.

At the entrance to the village, the Lichtenburg Educational Centre, one of the biggest ones in South Tyrol, and the Nalles Fruit Growers' Cooperative greet you. In autumn, there are full bins of freshly harvested apples in front of it. Afterwards, you enter Nalles village (Nals Dorf), with the newly designed Town Hall Square in the middle. The town hall, a bank and the information office can be found here, and the weekly farmers' market is also held there. Then, the small roads lead in all directions: to Andriano, into the village to the primary school and the Parish Church of St. Ulrich, as well as to the sports facilities with the open-air swimming pool and the riding stable.

The road that leads uphill from Nalles village to Sirmiano and Sirmiano di Sopra is flanked by inns that offer the popular Toerggele dishes in their cellars in autumn. In addition to the slaughter platter, roasted chestnuts, new wine and sweet Krapfen are also part of the menu. The best way to discover the area around Nalles is on foot or by bike: The Valle dell'Adige Cycle Path between Bolzano and Merano passes by the village. On foot, we recommend the Way of St. James Andriano - Nalles, a circular walk of about three hours on the slopes of the Adige Valley, which shows you the blossoming apple trees in spring and the changing colours of the vines in autumn.
