Autumn in South Tyrol

So beautifully quiet!
Autumn in South Tyrol.

Deep relaxation. Enchanting experiences. True delight.
November is a magical time at the Weisses Kreuz in Burgeis.

We are open until November 24th!

Even the leaves, carried gently by the wind, seem to be in no hurry. Wherever you look, the whole landscape breathes tranquility. When November arrives, a remarkable time begins in Burgeis. Everything feels so peaceful. Calm. Only a few travelers know about the quiet beauty of November, about the surprisingly many hours of sunshine, and the profound stillness that embraces mountains and valleys, forests and meadows.

Look forward to endless walks in magnificent nature. Cozy mornings in a soft bed. A leisurely breakfast with a second—or even third—cup of cappuccino. Finest Alpine wellness. And the treasures of South Tyrolean cuisine.

But late autumn is by no means boring. This is the time for carefully selected events and creative pastimes.

Have you ever heard the local Vinschger dialect? Or splashed in a pool beneath a starry sky?
Did you know that Europe’s highest vineyard lies right on our doorstep, and that the Vinschgau’s ancient irrigation channels (“Waale”) are a UNESCO World Heritage site?
No? Then it’s about time!

Culinary delights await, too. Discover the world of natural wines at the Winemaker’s Winetable, enjoy a traditional Törggelen in our cozy Kromer Stube, or join us for one of our special events.

  • When, if not now?

    Take time for yourself. The beautiful stillness of autumn almost urges us to pause from everyday life. Discover our carefully curated holiday packages. For yogis, connoisseurs, and all those who simply need a short break.

    To the offers

  • When the autumn days grow a little cooler, there’s no better place to relax than in our AURA MEA Spa – that’s why, starting November 1, we’ll be heating our saunas from 12 noon. A special highlight awaits you with the infusions by our three sauna masters, Elia, Noel, and Veronika, taking place five days a week. From classic sauna infusions to steam bath peelings and incense rituals, you can look forward to a varied sauna program.

  • Swimming, sweating, and savoring under the starry sky. Join us for the Weisses Kreuz Culinary Spa Night – our wellness area will stay open for you until 11 pm. Our sauna masters will pamper you with a homemade peeling in the steam bath and two wonderful infusions. Between sessions, we’ll serve three small dishes right in the spa area. Pools, whirlpool, prosecco, bathrobe – we’ve thought of everything ;-) And to round off the evening, enjoy a hot nightcap outdoors!!

  • Did you know that the irrigation system of the Obervinschgau Waale is part of the UNESCO World Heritage?

    On this leisurely hike with Marlene, you’ll learn more about the history of the Waale and their importance for agriculture. The route takes you across the Mals alluvial cone, past numerous Waale, and along the “Sonnensteig” trail to the charming Gartencafé Solis – where we’ll pause for a short break. Afterwards, we continue on to Mals and return to Burgeis by city bus.

    From October 19 to November 23 (once a week)

  • For anyone visiting South Tyrol in autumn, Törggelen is a must – this centuries-old custom is an essential part of South Tyrolean culture. Rustic traditional dishes are served: sauerkraut, homemade sausages, dumplings, Schlutzkrapfen, smoked meats, and ribs. For dessert, sweet doughnuts, roasted chestnuts, and new wine (Suser) await – all homemade, of course.

    At the Weisses Kreuz, the evening begins with a refined autumnal chestnut–porcini cream soup, followed by homemade speck, Burgeis alpine butter, and Paarl bread. The Törggelen delights, prepared in our own Weisses Kreuz style, are served in our cozy “Kromer Stube.”

    Both house guests and external visitors are welcome to reserve a traditional Törggelen evening with us!

    Every Wednesday to Saturday
    from October 13 to November 22, 2025

Together with sommelier Carmen, you’ll visit a local winery or wine cellar in the valley, combined with a fine tasting on site.
