Green Hush Travel" describes the trend of enjoying silent, untouched nature away from well-known tourist hotspots – without social media hype, without crowds, focusing only on peace, deceleration, and authentic experiences.

Amidst today's global food production, where sustainability and local economies are paramount, the culinary and hospitality scene in Algund, a charming village near Merano, distinguishes itself with an unwavering commitment to absolute regionality.

Sustainable tourism is no longer a mere trend, but a necessity for forward-thinking communities. The Algund Tourist Office has embraced this challenge.

On October 16, 2024, at 10:00 AM, the highly anticipated award ceremony for the Algund Natural Garden Competition took place. Mayor Ulrich Gamper and the jury were present. After a careful evaluation of the entries received in July and August, the jury finally announced the winners of this prestigious competition.

As soon as the summer comes to an end, the air gets cooler and the apples on the trees get redder. The annual apple harvest in the Garden Village Algund is just around the corner.

The well-known hydrotherapist and naturopath Sebastian Kneipp explored the healing powers of water. For his 200th birthday, the garden village Algund opened a new circular hiking trail, including 50 stations offering information about his healthy philosophy that is way more than just water treading.
