Places to stroll with family and children

Nature is often described as a wise teacher. Some places, more than others, show us what really means to respect the environment, to love our land and tread gently on it. Sometime it’s easier looking from a child’s point of view, so join your children in an educational adventure, swap the desk for an outdoor playground and learn about our beautiful region, Trentino.

We selected 7 family-friendly experiences: learn about wildlife, fruit trees, ancient rocks and great mountains from the experts, who are people just like us, who love where they live and know how to care for it.
