Holidays in the mountains, 6 ideas for the summer

Italians have clear ideas about the 2022 holidays. The sea traditionally wins, with 41% of preferences. Followed closely by the mountains (19.4%), which confirms an upward trend also in the latest research commissioned to AstraRicerche by the Consortium of Valtellina Casera and Bitto Dop cheeses, from which emerges in particular the preference of one in three tourists for typical food products. Let’s start from Lombardy and its dairy products, for a journey through the Italian peaks in 5 stages. Each dedicated to a different aspect of the mountain.

    On the Renon train

    The Renon historic train turns 115. Initially, the journey included three stages that connected Bolzano to Collalbo. Later, a section was replaced by a cable car and even today, once you reach 1,227 meters with the cable car that starts from Bolzano, you can continue on the preserved section of the last short-track railway. The train runs every half hour between Soprabolzano and
    Collalbo, in the months of April until December. For reservations and info on the events scheduled during the summer, you can contact the dedicated site. For those who are planning a stay in the area in September, the eco-lodge in the woods of Renon ADLER Lodge RITTEN offers the package for the whole month Wanderlust, to relive the emotions of the Belle Époque and cross less known itineraries; the offer also proposes to explore the Renon plateau on foot and by bicycle and discover the tastes of the territory by stopping at the new Adler garden-garden “From farm to table” (min. 3 nights, Lodge all-inclusive arrangement, Junior Suite, from € 984.00 per person).

    Nights at the Stelvio park looking at the stars

    At the Stelvio National Park the summer program is very dense: there are the magical nights for stargazing (and see them as never before), but also trekking in the most evocative places of the park (for example to the Saènt waterfalls among the monumental larches), walks with wildlife guides to discover animals, appointments with history and traditions and those to learn to listen to silence (in Val di Rabbi). Starting point (and information): the Pejo Visitor Center and the Parco Rabbi Info Point both in Trentino. The whole program is here.

    The castles of the Aosta Valley

    From the Issogne Castle to that of Vèrres, a route among the most important fortifications in the region with guided tours, photographic walks, trekking, outdoor trips and bus routes. The proposal of the Associazione Abbissione Musei combines new and important collaborations with higher education schools, and aims to involve the younger generations for the enhancement of culture through an interactive community, capable of contributing to the shared narrative of the territory. New experiences to live also following the recent opening of the doors of the Castle of Aymavilles to the public, after a long period of complex restoration work.

  • Climbing in Val Gardena

    In Val Gardena you can experience the thrill of climbing to the top of the most beautiful peaks of the Dolomites. Since spring 2022 this opportunity has been enriched with a new experience: the Via ferrata Furcela de Saslonch, in the Sassolungo Group, which extends for more than 500 meters, with a climb that varies from ribbons to ramps and with some steep climbs, overcoming just under 200 meters in altitude. The difficulties are mostly B with some passages C. The travel time is about 2 hours, in maximum safety. Alpine schools Catores and theVal Gardena Alpine Guides Association they also offer excursions, via ferrata and climbing routes, with guides for expert hikers and mountaineers.

    Cool off in Lana

    Waterfalls, lakes, streams to immerse yourself in. Lana (and surroundings) is ideal for cooling off. Two of the irrigation canals of the dense network in the Val d’Adige, which can be traveled along thanks to the paths that flank them, cross the Lana region: the Waalwege, easy paths that once served to control the regular flow of water and to carry out works maintenance, without significant differences in height and therefore very popular with families even with small children. Being able to wet your feet during a stop, or play in the water safely, as the depth of the Waale is a few tens of centimeters, is a real fun for children, but also for the older ones. The Brandis Waalweg path connects Lana di Sopra with Lana di Sotto and extends between chestnut groves, vineyards and apple orchards. It is a flat walk lasting about 40 minutes (2.5 km), while the Marlengo / Cermes Waalweg, 11 kilometers long (about 3 hours), starts from Lana and arrives at the Chiusa di Tel, passing through the villages of Cermes, Marlengo and Foresta always maintaining an altitude of 450 meters. The Gola di Lana is one of the most fascinating places in this area. From the center of the village you can walk in a few minutes to a wild landscape made up of woods, rocky walls, but above all of streams and small waterfalls that in summer refresh the air and with their noise make the walk more adventurous. From the bridge over the Valsura river in Lana di Sopra, the walk becomes more and more adventurous and on the sides of the walls the rivulets turn into many waterfalls. Speaking of waterfalls, the territory of the Lana Region is also rich in those. The Brandis waterfall is located at the end of the Waalweg of the same name. At its feet, there is also a romantic bench where you can sit and admire the show and listen to the roar of the water, which incessantly and impetuously reaches the ground after a jump of about 10 meters. For information on these and other routes in this beautiful corner of South Tyrol: Lana region.
