You’ll learn something new every day… if you listen to Nature
5 easy summer trails through history and nature
There’s always something new to discover, especially when you move through the woods, meadows and mountains of Trentino. Here nature takes on the role of teacher and accompanies you along pleasant trails, suitable for the entire family, and subtly reveals her secrets.
In the verdant Val di Sole, for example, you’ll learn how to recognise wild herbs, whereas in the Adamello-Brenta Natural Park you’ll learn about the local fauna. In the borderlands between the Val di Non and the Val d'Ultimo, you’ll learn about two peoples, so close yet so different. There are many activities and trails that will lead you on a road of discovery to Trentino’s historical and natural heritage.
The Garden of Wonders of the Val di Sole
Not far from the hamlet of Ossana in the Val di Sole, you’ll find Bosco Derniga, a splendid garden that aims to reproduce and unveil the secrets of the Alpine woodlands with the fragrance of flowers, the scent of herbs and the soft sound of wood. In the summer you can also take part in birdwatching activities, yoga or star-gazing with an astronomer. For younger children there’s a small educational farm with goats and a piglet.
Sunset in the Adamello-Brenta Natural Park
Rucksack ready, boots on and dinner packed. You set off in the late afternoon from San Lorenzo in Banale, one of the most beautiful hamlets in Italy, and reach the Adamello-Brenta Natural Park by jeep. You continue on foot, under the soft light of dusk and in the company of local guides. It’s the perfect way to learn about the flora and fauna… and if you’re lucky you’ll spot a chamois on a rocky ledge!
