Easy mountain excursions to do in spring
Start training!
Lose yourself in nature to rediscover your inner-balance and vitality. As spring brings more daylight and warmth in the air, you can’t hold it back any longer: it’s time to shake off the winter cobwebs and get active. But what’s the best way to do it, you ask? Start with something simple like a walk, slowly embracing the beauty of nature around you.
Take a look at our 6 easy excursions in the mountains, get ready for summer and enjoy the regenerating powers of nature in an exceptional outdoor gym: the Dolomites and Lake Garda.
A panoramic trail
A classic that never fails to amaze. It’s the Busatte-Tempesta trail, easy to walk thanks to the spectacular metal staircases fixed to the rock that safely take you across the exposed parts, providing at the same time an amazing lookout on Lake Garda.
On the Monte of Mezzocorona
The thrill of the cable car, that will take you up and back again, is always something to look forward to. Once you get to the top you’ll enjoy a splendid view across the Rotaliana Konisberg plain before taking a path through the woods. The Monte of Mezzocorona is far from the hustle and bustle below and on a mild spring day why not organise a picnic in the surrounding meadows?
The air is fresher on Paganella
Pace yourself and enjoy each step, each breath of fresh air. Go hiking on the Brenta Dolomites and around Lake Molveno, take time to smell the wildflowers and stop for that “wow” moment gazing across the mountains, truly breathtaking.
Up to the Rifugio Altissimo mountain lodge
The trail winds its way through the Monte Baldo Natural Park, a protected area characterised by its exceptional biodiversity. Once you reach the Rifugio Altissimo Damiano Chiesa you’ll be amazed by the fantastic view of Lake Garda, 2,000 metres below. Eleonora and her staff will also amaze you with some typical Trentino dishes.
The living trees
A themed itinerary on contemporary art in the middle of the woods: here the true works of art are the trees themselves. Each sculpture is a discreet reflection of its surroundings. The trail, that starts at the characteristic hamlet of Lanzino, follows an easy forest road to a panoramic location.
The Val di Fassa
It’s not just about long arduous treks, springtime in the Val di Fassa also offers a number of easier trails, suitable for everyone. The itinerary that we propose here is a good example. You take off from the square in Pozza di Fassa and follow the Avisio river up to the Piciocaa area. This path is also suitable for pushchairs.
