Trentino-Alto Adige & The Dolomites

The Dolomites sit at the top of Italy, surrounded by the region of Trentino-Alto Adige, and next to Austria.
This stunning area offers rugged mountain wilderness and green vine and orchard covered valleys, dotted with wooden farmhouses. Their rock evidently gives to the mountains a very distinct white cast (which is why they are also called the “Pale Mountains”), but the most particular tones arise every evening when the sun starts to set: the colors go from pinkish hues to fiery reds, the phenomenon referred to as Alpenglow.The region's cities, the southerly enclave and capital of Trento, the Austro-Italian Bolzano and very Viennese Merano and the ski village of Madonna di Campiglio, with its 155 kilometres of slopes, is one of the most famous ski resorts in Trentino and beyond. This “Queen of Snow”, as it has been nicknamed, offers visitors the opportunity to experience the world of the mountains in all its facets, from the sportier and more adrenaline-pumping adventures to the more glamorous and social activities.
