Trekking days in the middle of nature.

Try to embrace the huge trunk of the Patriarca del Baldo (TN): a centuries-old silver fir of extraordinary size. For all the info on how to reach it click here.

Walking on the bed of a stream to see the Balòt tacà via (VR): a huge rounded boulder that collapsed from the mountain and got stuck and suspended between the narrow rocky walls of the gorge that hosts it. For all the info on how to reach it click here.

Culture: visit to the Sanctuary of Madonna della Corona.

This beautiful sanctuary owes its particularity to the fact that the structure is partially close to the rocky wall of Monte Baldo. In fact, the construction was made in a hollow of this mountain (774 m a.s.l.) overlooking the Val D’Adige. It can be reached comfortably from the town of Spiazzi, a hamlet of Caprino Veronese (VR), or with a nice trek that climbs into the woods from the town of Brentino Belluno. For more info click here.
