At home in Bolzano

With only 699 millimetres of average annual rainfall, Bolzano has a dry and pleasant climate like Italian cities much further south such as Venice (700 mm), Florence (776 mm) or Rome (768 mm).

In South Tyrol there are on average more than 2.000 hours of sunshine per year, and the hotspots like the capital city even reach 2.500 hours of sunshine, i.e. two thirds of the total annual time. 

Due to its location in a natural valley based in the south of the Alps, Bolzano has a milder climate than many other alpine cities.  Especially in autumn and spring, temperatures are more mediterrean than alpine.
