On our last day in Bolzano, I took the cable car to Suprabolzano/Oberbozen (elevation: 1250 m) and went for a short hike through the beautiful forest landscape, past the weird earth pyramids (geologically known as hoodoos). Returning to Bolzano, our dinner plans were nearly thwarted by the Catholic custom of closing restaurants not only on Sunday, but already from Saturday afternoon. We decided on the slightly pricier Hostaria Argentieri - and for a few Euros more had the best meal of the entire trip! While most restaurants in Bolzano cut corners catering to the tourist, this place offers Italian cuisine at its best.
