Not only from a geographic point of view, Brunico is considered the centre of the Val Pusteria. This town is also interesting from a cultural viewpoint and the first-choice meeting place in the valley. San Giorgio, Stegona, S. Caterina, Lunes, Ameta, Teodone and Riscone, together with the town itself, form the municipality that stretches from 812 m to the summit of the Plan de Corones at 2,277 m. Both in summer and winter, this mountain attracts visitors from all over, a good destination for those who love an active vacation. In winter the variety of slopes is huge, while in summer it offers several hiking trails, a free-ride trail for cyclists and a great view.
The folklore museum of Teodone, the MMM Ripa at Castel Brunico as well as the city museum are the cultural highlights of the municipality, also theatre or cinema evenings make part of the offer.
