Natz-Schabs: the “Big Apple” of South Tyrol

What do Adam and Eve and Snow White have in common? Unfortunately, they didn’t enjoy the taste of the temptingly good apples that thrive around our family hotel in Natz-Schabs, Das Mühlwald Quality Time Family Resort. Natz-Schabs is considered the “Big Apple” of South Tyrol, because 11,000 tonnes of apples are harvested here every year. It’s no wonder, then, that everything here above Brixen revolves around this heavenly fruit. Bite into a succulent apple and spend your next family holiday in South Tyrol in Natz-Schabs!
