What does a “Blue Flag” mean?
It means that the water we bathe in meets quality standards. The water must respect rigid chemical parameters that are periodically monitored: no wastewaters, clean beaches and strict control of inflow. The Blue Flag is an international award, established in 1987, European Year of the Environment. Every year it is presented to municipalities and tourist destinations across 49 countries both in Europe and across the world.
297 lakes in Trentino
A true land of lakes, in Trentino you can count 297 of them. An eye for sustainability, attention to the environment and quality services are key. The best-known is without a doubt Lake Garda, renowned throughout the world for its ample beaches, sailing and windsurfing. But that’s only part of it.
The mountain lakes are been sought after too, jewels embraced by green woodlands and high peaks, bodies of crystal clear waters, such as the lakes of Smeraldo, Tovel, Molveno, Nero and Tenno.
