Val Rendena - The Way of the Valleys
<p>The excursion in Val Rendena offers the opportunity to discover its small parishes, from Verdesina to Madonna di Campiglio, immersed in a landscape of rare beauty, the result of the harmonious meeting between nature and human work.</p>
<p>Rich in waters and woods, <strong>Val Rendena</strong> is dominated by the majestic meeting of the spires of the UNESCO World Heritage Brenta Dolomites and the glaciers of Adamello-Presanella. In just 25 km, you pass from the heights of Madonna di Campiglio (<strong>1,550 m</strong>) to the gentle mid-altitude pastures down to <strong>600 meters</strong> in Verdesina. </p> <p>The environment is characterised by <strong>intense green forests</strong> and <strong>ancient forests</strong> that slope down from the <strong>mountain slopes</strong>, rich in <strong>waterfalls</strong> and <strong>alpine lakes</strong>, towards the valley floor with its small <strong>villages</strong>, true hidden treasures of Alpine culture, religious and popular, all surrounded by the <strong>Adamello Brenta Nature Park</strong>.</p> <p>From Val Rendena, numerous side valleys branch off: Val San Valentino with its mid-altitude meadows and mountain huts, Val Borzago which leads to Carè Alto and the high-altitude posts of the First World War, the lakes of San Giuliano and Garzonè, Val Genova with its many waterfalls, Val Nambrone and its torrent-like landscape; Vallesinella with karstic-origin waterfalls and Val Brenta, the gateway to the Dolomites. </p>
