These are the most ingenious infinity pools in Merano and surroundings

A jump into the cool water is just as much a part of your vacation in Merano as a stroll through the Merano arcades, like the obligatory aperitivo, but also a walk along the Tappeinerweg? Infinity pools are ingenious constructions of (seemingly) rimless pools, which by means of lowered edges make the water visually disappear into infinity and give a clear view of the surroundings.
We have compiled the seven most beautiful hotels with infinity pools in Merano, where you can relax and enjoy the view to your heart's content!

Recently, the glass infinity pool, which is modeled after a blossom, rises to a large extent above the roof of Guesthouse F and spoils you with an unobstructed view of the Passeier mountains. Thanks to continuous glass walls AND a glass floor, you'll float weightlessly above things here all year round at 32 degrees Celsius. Fire torches lit around the pool at dusk set the mood daily for the evening ahead, creating a magical atmosphere.
Situated in the middle of the resort, the Sport Infinity Pool captivates with its location and your view all the way to the hotel's own golf course and beyond to the Merano valley basin. For ambitious swimmers there is even a timing system available. Very close to the infinity pool is also a top indoor pool connected to the outdoor pool (all year 32 °), outdoor saltwater pool (all year 34 °).
Also part of the Quellenhof is the Hotel Alpenschlössel, which has a fantastic Sky Infinity Pool on the roof of the house.
