Holiday apartment in Faller: apple blossom, frescoes and trails

Faller lies on the western foothills of Monte Avena and combines scenic experiences with remarkable traces of local history. In May, the blossoming apple trees make the meadows appear like a floating blanket of snow. This special combination of mountain scenery, open meadows and regional apple culture gives the village its own character and offers you various starting points for planning your stay.

Holiday apartment in Faller amid trails and landscapes

An important point of reference for active days is the third stage, which begins in Faller at an altitude of 777 metres and ends at Passo Croce d’Aune at 1,015 metres. It leads from Faller and Borgata Panizzer towards the Ausor Valley via the new Sentiero „Appocher Giovanni“. If, when choosing a holiday apartment in Faller, you would like to combine nature experiences with trail-related activities, you can incorporate this stage into your personal excursion planning without limiting your stay to a single activity.

Church, chapel and frescoes in Faller

Faller is also of interest for its architecture and visual art. The Church of Saints Quirino and Giulietta is of ancient origin and was rebuilt and enlarged in 1630. Following the cholera epidemic of 1836, the chapel of Saint Filomena was added to the church. It contains a wax statue of the patron saint, preserved in a glass case.

Among the specific artistic features is Casa Trento at Piazza Corrent 17 in Faller. The building has a fresco of the Madonna di Loreto dating from 1794, which was refreshed in 1867, as well as an 18th-century fresco of the Madonna di Caravaggio. Several wall paintings in the centre of Faller are regarded as testimonies to the local past and expressions of deeply rooted popular devotion. This creates a cultural walk for you that brings together individual buildings, religious art and visible local history.

Picnic spot and local orientation

The car park for the Itinerario del Pom Prussian is located on Piazza di Faller in Sovramonte. The Area picnic Faller di Sovramonte has two picnic tables and serves as a starting point and resting place for walks and excursions in the surrounding area. This specific location therefore combines practical guidance for an outdoor stay with a break between further impressions in Faller.

Apple tradition and Fiera della Mela Prussiana

The Pom Prussian apple is red with yellow stripes, medium-sized to large, very crisp and has a slightly tart aftertaste. This regional speciality also shapes the events calendar: the Fiera della Mela Prussiana takes place every October in Faller di Sovramonte. Along Faller’s streets, local products and traditional handicrafts take centre stage. These include numerous food stalls serving traditional dishes and homemade sweet treats.

When looking for a holiday apartment in Faller, you can therefore weigh up different priorities: the third stage and the Sentiero „Appocher Giovanni“ for trail planning, the church and wall paintings for cultural discoveries, or the apple blossom and the Fiera della Mela Prussiana for scenic and culinary experiences. This allows you to choose your accommodation according to the type of stay you are planning, while the specific places and themes provide the framework for days spent together.
