Adamello Brenta National ParkWith popular skiing resorts, picturesque towns and delicious food, the area of the Adamello Brenta National Park offers unforgettable vacations Forests, meadows, shrubs, rocks and glaciers alternate in the multifaceted landscape of the most extensive protected area in Trentino. Located in the heart of the Alps, the Adamello-Brenta Nature Park is crowned by two morphologically distinct mountainous groups: the Brenta Dolomites and the Adamello-Presanella granitic massif.
In the middle, it is divided by the Val Rendena and the Sarca river. Filled with lakes and streams, the park has some of the most varied fauna in the Alps. This is a perfect habitat for all mountain species, from the brown bear to the ibex to the marmot. The land's diverse geological characteristics also make the park's flora rich and highly varied. Areas such as Pinzolo and Madonna di Campiglio owe their fame and prestige to their displays of unsurpassed natural beauty, such as the Vallesinella waterfalls and the Lobbie glaciers.
To enjoy a truly relaxing stop and taste the flavors of delicious, genuine Trentino-style cooking, try the Hotel Cristina (via Bolognini 39; +39 0465-501620; www.hotelcristina.info), located only 100 meters from the slopes and a short walk from the town center.
Here, all levels of competitions take place throughout the winter season, culminating in the legendary 3-Tre, an international event which includes downhill racing, the slalom and the giant slalom. In addition to sports, one can also fall in love with Madonna di Campiglio because of the refined atmosphere offered by its luxurious hotels and characteristic restaurants. Dinner by candlelight, the fragrant aroma of homemade bread and desserts and a welcoming, well-kept environment await you at the Stube Hermitage (via Castelletto Inferiore 63; +39 0465-441558; www.biohotelhermitage.it). At the Locanda Mezzosoldo (+39 0465 801067; www.mezzosoldo.it), which finds its home inside a former staging post, you will taste delectable dishes of truly genuine locale cuisine. Established in the mid 1960s among the forest's firs and larches, Folgarida is also a paradise for those who love skiing and snowboarding (with special slopes for the latter). Connected to Madonna di Campiglio, its skiing area offers slopes for everyone, with a vast selection ranging from the simplest ones dedicated to beginners to the most challenging ones for expert skiers.
