The Adamello Brenta Natural Park, our largest protected area
How big is the Adamello Brenta Natural Park? 620.51 km² of wilderness, with something everyone. You don’t need a ticket and there are no opening times; in Trentino, nature is open 24/7.
What to see in the Adamello Brenta Natural Park
From gentle hillsides to 3000 m Dolomite peaks! The Adamello Brenta Natural Park awaits, offering extraordinary panoramas, the stuff of stunning Instagram photos. Except this time, you will be the one taking photos with the “wow” factor.
During your holiday in the Alpine countryside, make time for a walk in the remote Val d’Algone. It offers splendid views, from the Brenta Dolomites to the glaciers of the Presanella range. All along the valley you will find ancient paths and, with a bit of luck, you might be able to spot some of the many wild animals which live here, like squirrels, deer and even eagles.
We recommend a forest trail in the Val d’Algone where little ones can have fun looking for cute little ceramic animal figurines. You might also stumble across an old sawmill!
And why not take a break at an Alpine dairy for refreshments, such as Malga Nambi or Malga Movlina. Further down the valley, the views change, the landscape is more gentle but still very beautiful. Just a few kilometres from Stenico and its mighty castle, you will hear the roar of the mighty Rio Bianco waterfall. Highly recommended on a hot, sunny day. Our recommended hiking routes in the park can all be downloaded from our website, exploring unique and diverse destinations.
To give you some examples, there is the Arca di Fraporte, an enormous natural rock arch, or crystal-clear alpine lakes such as Lake Nembia, or even high up among the rocky pinnacles of the Dolomites, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Explore all of this completely free of charge!
What to do in the Adamello Brenta Natural Park
If you want to really get to know the park, we recommend checking out some of the many organised activities and walks which focus on local flora and fauna.
The guides from the Adamello Brenta Natural Park will point out some of the little details that you might otherwise miss: a fossil in the rock reminding us that this area was once under the sea, a little dark brown flower which smells of chocolate or a tiny woodpecker pecking away undisturbed at the trunk of a pine tree.
Nature to take your breath away!
