Location & what to see

Garni Rika is located in Parcines, a small village in the Val Venosta at the foot of the Tessa Group Nature Park, in a rural area dominated by mountains and characterised by orchards and country paths. The quiet of the hamlet contrasts with its proximity to Merano, reachable in just a few minutes by car.

The nearest railway station, Töll-Tel, is just 1.2 km away, while Rablà-Rabland station is 1.6 km away: both provide quick connections to Merano and the rest of South Tyrol. The Parcines waterfall (Partschinser Wasserfall) is about 1.4 km away, an easy and very popular hike. A few minutes’ walk away are also some typical restaurants such as Garberstube and Giggelberg, about 350-450 metres away. Bolzano Airport is 30 km away, convenient for those arriving by plane.

In summer, the area is perfect for trekking on the mountains of the Tessa Group and for cooling off at the nearby Lido di Lagundo, 3.7 km away. In winter, the proximity to Merano makes it easy to reach the thermal spas and the gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle, about 9 km away, as well as the historic centre with the Princes’ Castle and the Women’s Museum, both about 7 km from the property.

Parcines Waterfall — A striking waterfall reachable on foot, a very popular hiking destination 1,4 km
