Anglers and fishing enthusiasts will find our 5-star hotels near Merano an ideal base for enjoying their hobby in South Tyrol. The nearby Passer river, with its fish-rich waters and surrounding unspoilt nature, offers perfect conditions for anglers and fly-fishers during an active holiday in South Tyrol.
The local recreation area with fish pond at the Sandwirt is accessible to locals and guests alike. Children playfully try to catch their first fish, supported by their parents. You can fish here during opening hours with a day ticket (approx. €15 for up to four fish), you don’t need a fishing licence or test. Fishing rods can be hired on site and bait is also available to buy. Families and older guests in particular can enjoy a wonderfully relaxing day on an active holiday in South Tyrol thanks to the easily accessible terrain. You can access the fishing pond comfortably by bike (free hire at the Andreus Resorts) or on foot from the hotel, along the Passer river in all cases.
It looks simple, but the right fishing cast is an art in itself. Arnold Gufler’s fly-fishing school organises casting courses for beginners and professionals. He’ll also happily show you the loveliest spots on the Passer where you can fish during your active holiday in South Tyrol.
