Trentino - Alto Adige
Three languages, two provinces and a dramatic UNESCO World Heritage mountain landscape considered one of the most beautiful in the world, Trentino- Alto Adige is nothing you’d expect and much much more.
FUN FACTS
- Trentino and Alto Adige/Sudtirol are two distinctly unique self-governing provinces in the same region.
- Ötzi, the Iceman and Europe’s oldest natural human mummy circa 3300 BC, was found in the Sudtirol’s Ötztal Alps.
- The coldest point in Western Europe is Busa Fradusta Nord, Trentino
- Lago di Resia hides the town of Graun and when it freezes over, you can walk out to the sunken bell tower.
- Water spirits, woodland sprites, witches and more legendarily live in the Schlern mountain area.
