Although it is the youngest district of the municipality of Appiano - until recently Appiano Monte was part of San Michele - it has a long history to tell. Numerous residences adorn the streets: Among them are Freudenstein Castle, today known for its Golf Academy, and Palù-Schulthaus Castle with its Museum for Medieval Culture of Living.
The area of Appiano Monte stretches from 447 m up to 1,571 m on the Mendola ridge. About one third of the area is inhabited and used for agriculture, above 600 m sea level up to the rock faces of the Mendola the forest extends, which can be experienced, among other things, on the Appiano High Route.
From Appiano Monte a hike leads to the popular Ice Holes below Mt Ganda very close by. Especially in summer, this natural phenomenon is a popular destination...
