Lagorai, Valsugana Orientale e Tesino
Enjoy beautiful walks surrounded by the green landscape. Not
forgetting the great historical and cultural heritage of the area.
On one side, there is the valley basin flown by the Brenta river,
on the other side a plateau stretching to the orographic left of
the valley; an area with colorful orchards and gigantic rocks
towering above the sunny slopes.
On the edge of the Lagorai chain, the rolling green countryside of
the Tesino plateau is dotted with pastures and cultivated fields.
This plateau is an excellent starting point for excursions in the
mountains on the northern border, i.e. to Lagorai and Cima dŽAsta,
where hikers come into contact with a particularly wild and
unspoiled nature. The front line between Italy and Austria during
the First World War ran along the Lagorai and Cima dŽAsta mountain
sides. The trenches, evidence of that time, are still visible
today. Not far east of Borgo Valsugana, the administrative capital
of Eastern Valsugana, is the well-preserved Castel Ivano which
hosts cultural and scientific events as well as art exhibitions.
Eastern Valsugana and Tesino are also interesting for potholers as
the largest grottoes in Trentino exist in this area, such as the
Bigonda and the Calgeron (near Grigno) and the Grotta di Castel
Tesino.
