Chasing gnomes along magical trails

Walks for children in a magical and fun-filled world

The “Once upon a times” in Trentino are countless. Re (king) Laurino, Fata (fairy) Gavardina and the Talking Cricket of the Val Lomasona, roll down from their mountain top, cloud or crest to play hide-and-seek along a number of magical trails.

These are the Fairy-Tale Trails, fun and easy and to be enjoyed by the whole family. Behind tree and outcrops, magical figures peep out, or maybe you’ll come across some new games to try: an enchanted castle to explore, ropes for climbing, trunks to be drummed and green seas of grass to be photographed.

And then of course, a race up to the mountain hut, made of wood, stones and colourful balconies. The perfect place to end a perfect day, something out of a fairy tale.
