The Fiemme Valley & Dolomites

The Fiemme Valley comprises numerous mountainous compounds: the chain of the Lagorai, the Pale di San Martino, and the group of Rosengarten-Latemar.

These spaces, immersed in green, are ideal for excursions on mountain bikes during the summer season, while in winter they can be travelled with snow shoes.
There are also several hectares of woods of larches and firs and among the latter stands out the spruce resonance that from the nickname of “Forest of the violins” to the Natural Park of Paneveggio.
Its wood is used to create the tables of resonance for pianos, while stories tell that Stradivari uses it for its marvelous violins.

The Pale of San Martino

The Pale di San Martino is one of the most beautiful mountain chains of the Dolomites. Covering an area of about 240 km² between the eastern Trentino and the province of Belluno.

This is a chain of mountains of coral origin formed by spires, peaks, and edges, that during the sunset turn pink, giving life to the astonishing phenomenon of the Enrosadira.

The history of the blades dates back to approximately 300 million years ago; it all began by immense colonies of corals that have multiplied, in a calm and shallow are, giving rise to high cliffs of over one thousand meters. These reefs subsequently emerged and atmospheric agents gave them the shape of the current conformation.

The Lagorai

The Lagorai is the longest mountain group on eastern Trentino that extends between Monte Panarotta and Passo Rolle with a length of well over 70 km.

This group is composed of porphyry, igneous formed of quartz and orthoclase that confer to the rocky walls a coloring variety with shades of black, green, and reddish.

This territory is of sure interest for history enthusiasts: here you can in fact find the front where the Kingdom of Italy and its Allies fought against the armies of Austria – Hungary and Germany during the First World War.
