Madonna di Campiglio

Where to find it

We are in the heart of Val Rendena, among the Brenta Dolomites and the glaciers of the Adamello and Presanella. Madonna di Campiglio, a resort town with about 800 inhabitants, is among the most renowned of all Trentino. It is located at an elevation of 1,550 metres asl, in the province of Trento.
 

What to do

Already in the second half of the Nineteenth century, it was a holiday destination for the Austrian nobility and wealthy bourgeois: among its most renowned guests, we cannot miss the opportunity to mention Princess Sissi and Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria.

Today, Madonna di Campiglio is a very popular destination among skiing and winter sports enthusiasts, thanks to its 60 kilometres of slopes and 20 ski lift facilities, making it one of the most renowned skiing locations in Italy. Right here, on the “3 Tre” slope, the special slalom competitions of the Alpine Skiing World Cup are held.

But Madonna di Campiglio is also very popular in summer: its position is perfect for those who enjoy excursions on foot, hikes, cycling, and mountain biking. Don’t forget to visit at least one of the five lakes of glacial origin: Serodoli, Gelato, Ritorto, Nero and Lambin.

In addition, the nearby Adamello Brenta Nature Park offers 450 kilometres of mountain trails for either hiking or mountain biking. The landscapes are postcard-worthy, thanks to the wonderful Brenta Dolomites which provide the perfect frame.

And on summer evenings, in the heart of the town, you will find restaurants, bars, play areas for the children, and discos for youths. All year round, Madonna di Campiglio offers varied and high-quality tourism opportunities, both in terms of the accommodation facilities suitable even for families with children, and for the beautiful natural surroundings.

Finally, in the vicinity, we suggest you visit Pinzolo and the Waterfalls of Nardis and Vallesinella.
