The Vigilius Mountain Resort, South Tyrol, Italy Designed By Matteo Thun & Partners



No roads, no traffic, no noise. Located at 1,500 meters altitude, in pure alpine air, the vigilius mountain resort in South Tyrol is only accessible by cable car and is almost invisible in its surroundings. Like a tree that has fallen in the forest, the resort combines old substance with fresh growth, generating new internal life and a commitment to renewal. An eco-luxury mountain hideaway where awareness co-exists with aesthetics, and everything revolves around nature and landscape.
