Meran of East Tyrol
Virgen, the sun village in the national park Upper Tauern, situated at 1200 m in the most beautiful high mountain valley of the eastern Alps, embedded between the Großglockner and the Großvenediger, is called “Meran of East Tyrol” because of its mild climate.
Numerous 3,000 metre peaks surround the Valley of Virgen, countless walks and hiking trails lead you through forests, blooming meadows and romantic canyons.
There are all the possibilities from the easy hiking tour to the challenging mountain hike.
“Maria Schnee”, a church of pilgrimage in Obermauern is a special cultural germ which is worth visiting (frescos by Simon of Taisten).
Multiple inns try to pamper the guests with home-style cooking.
