The location
Mountain panorama backdrop with a view over the Meraner Land
The Prairerhof is situated in the heart of the historic village of Schenna, in a dreamlike sunny position above the spa town of Merano, nestled on a sunny slope in the middle of greenery. As soon as you get up in the morning, a very special view over the Merano valley basin awaits you with a view as far as the Vinschgau Valley and surrounded by an impressive mountain world. Depending on the season, nature reflects different shades of colour from the green awakening in spring, the blossoming in summer, the falling of leaves in autumn and the white splendour in winter.
Due to its central location, the Prairerhof is the perfect starting point for your holiday. No matter whether you visit us for final relaxation in our green oasis of peace, for shopping and enjoying the spa town of Merano, for hiking or skiing on Merano 2000. We have the right insider tip for everyone.
These fantastic motifs accompany you at every turn at Prairerhof: at breakfast in the traditional breakfast room, while sunbathing on the spacious sunbathing lawn, while swimming in the unique open-air pool made of quartzide verde stone or while relaxing in our new 180° View massage whirlpool.
The climate
mild climate with Mediterranean influence
Protected by the high mountains in the north, influenced by the warm winds from the south, MeranerLand enjoys a mild climate with a Mediterranean influence all year round. Moderate temperatures and over 300 sunny days a year form the basis of a unique fauna which can be viewed in the botanical gardens of Trauttmansdorff Castle.
Even in winter the sun can be seen almost daily and is of a strength that is rare north of the Alps during the cold season.
Conclusion: Schenna is worth a visit at any time of the year.
