Trento and Bolzano: Alpine cities between history and contemporary life

Trento and Bolzano represent two complementary sides of the region.
Trento preserves an elegant historic centre, marked by the Buonconsiglio Castle, Renaissance squares and frescoed palaces that recall the era of the Council of Trent. It is a compact, walkable city, where cultural heritage is paired with a strong focus on sustainability and quality of life.

Bolzano, more open and light-filled, reflects the meeting of different worlds. Its medieval arcades, markets and surrounding vineyards bear witness to an orderly, pragmatic Alpine culture, where languages, traditions and architectural styles coexist.

The Dolomites: Val Gardena, Val di Fassa and Alpe di Siusi

The Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, are the visual and symbolic heart of the region.
Valleys such as Val Gardena, Val di Fassa and Val di Funes offer some of the most recognisable Alpine landscapes in Europe, with dramatic rock faces, high-altitude meadows and villages perfectly integrated into their surroundings.

The Alpe di Siusi, Europe’s largest high-altitude plateau, is a rare example of balance between human activity and nature: pastures, trails and historic farmsteads shape an open landscape, ideal for summer walks and winter sports.

Alpine lakes and the valleys of Trentino

Beyond its towering peaks, Trentino-Alto Adige is rich in lakes and sunlit valleys.
The northern shores of Lake Garda, with resorts such as Riva del Garda and Torbole, combine a mild climate with an Alpine setting, creating a unique environment for outdoor activities.

Lakes such as Caldonazzo, Levico and Carezza offer more intimate settings, ideal for those seeking tranquillity and close contact with nature.
The valleys of the Adige, Pusteria and Val di Non tell the story of a carefully cultivated land, where agriculture and landscape coexist in an orderly way.

Alpine villages and traditional architecture

The region’s fabric is dotted with villages and Alpine towns that maintain a strong connection to tradition.
Places such as Ortisei, Castelrotto, Chiusa and San Candido reflect a culture of living shaped by wood, stone and essential proportions.

Historic farmsteads, still inhabited and productive, are among the most distinctive elements of the rural landscape. Here, architecture arises from function and gradually becomes identity.

Flavours of Trentino-Alto Adige: mountain cuisine and precision

The cuisine of Trentino-Alto Adige mirrors the character of the land: essential, seasonal and deeply rooted in the mountains.
Canederli, prepared in many variations, are among the region’s signature dishes, alongside soups, meats and seasonal vegetable sides.

Alpine cheeses such as Puzzone di Moena, Stelvio DOP and local tomes reflect life and work at high altitude and the quality of the pastures.
Among cured meats, speck, lucanica and smoked products stand out, while apples, berries and rye bread complete a wholesome, nourishing food tradition.

Viticulture, concentrated along the Adige Valley, produces wines such as Gewürztraminer, Lagrein and Teroldego, direct expressions of the territory.
