Alpe di Siusi, Sunset
While summer is still going strong in some parts of the world, across much of the globe, fall colours are taking over and a nip is suddenly in the air. Very quickly, autumn will fully descend, the holidays will be upon us, and ski season will be in full swing. If you're looking for some mountain breaks to look forward to this fall and winter, whether you're interested in hiking or winter sports, it is time to start booking before it's too late!

One of the best mountain destinations for those who want to vacation in Italy has to be South Tyrol. A northern region of Italy with unique, Germanic-influenced traditions and culture, a section of the Alps cutting through it, and some exceptionally pretty towns and scenery, a vacation rental in South Tyrol is perfect for those who want to experience the best of the outdoorsy fun and stunning views that can be offered by a holiday in Italy's alpine areas.

A particularly lovely part of South Tyrol, however, has to be the area around Seiser Alm and the Alpe di Siusi ski resort. Utterly stunning, this plateau is nestled among the craggy and romantic peaks of the Dolomites and is the largest high-altitude Alpine meadow. A major tourist attraction for both skiing and hiking, it is an exceptionally picturesque part of the world and the perfect blend of that combination of outdoor adventure and gorgeous surroundings that draws visitors from all over the globe.     Read More
