This area is characterised by a large number of castles, ruins and residences that are popular excursion destinations. The Mendola funicular, considered the steepest and longest funicular railway of Europe, takes you to the Passo della Mendola, which is an ideal starting point for hikes, making you experience nature at close range. -

Only some minutes from Villa di Mezzo, there is the centre of the village. This is one of the reasons why this village is a perfect holiday destination: secluded, but anyway in the centre. Enjoy the calmness in the village and hike across the scenic landscape.
Campan Castle, which is one one of the large number of residences, is surrounded by the Manicor Vineyards (at lake Caldaro) located in the centre of the village and was constructed by Conrad von Campan in the 13th century in Gothic style. Striking are above all the double arched windows and the park.
