Walks and running in a natural environment
Countless
paths and itineraries will lead you on suggestive
walks in the
Paneveggio Natural Park. There is a wide range of possibilities for running enthusiasts, new experiences in order to achieve a healthy inner balance and a better quality of life.
From
paths with a slight difference in altitude to
running trails at high altitude for the utmost thrill. Here the vegetation is luxuriant and it gives off intense fragrances and aromas, wild animals populate the numerous woods and you can hear the neck bells of the cows grazing on the mountain pastures.
Excursions and climbing
There are countless possibilities to carry out these sports, across roads, meadows or paths. You can reach
high altitude shelters, shepherds’ huts (malghe), meadows and pastures as well as suggestive lakes either accompanied by expert
Alpine Guides or by yourselves. If you are an expert
climber, you will find many routes such as the "Spigolo del Velo", the "Bolver Lugli" on the Cimon della Pala or the "Ferrata del Porton Velo” fixed-aid climbing route which will leave you speechless.
Mountain bike trails
There are countless
mountain bike itineraries in the
Trentino area, at the foot of the Pala, Vette Feltrine and Lagorai Mountain Ranges! High altitude plateaus, green meadows, woods or a flat valley floor: you just have to choose your favourite one, according to your level of preparation and you will see that there will be no lack of thrills and adrenalin-packed adventures! And for the most fearless, the
San Martino Bike Arena, the first track dedicated to
downhill mountain biking through the
Alpe Tognola meadows and woods. Parabolic curves and trampolines for jumps and acrobatic feats in front of the majestic splendour of the
Pala Mountain Range.
Lakes in the Trentino area
Water in all its forms with torrents, streams, lakes and mountain ponds... the
lakes of the Dolomites are sparkling stretches of water that embellish the landscape. At
Rolle Pass with the
Colbricon Lakes, in the Vanoi valley with
Lake Calaita or the magnificent Val Canali with
Lake Welsperg.
A visit to the
lakes in the Trentino area is an absolute must and, in some of them you can also do some
sport fishing.
Trekking
Put on your mountain boots, pick up your telescopic poles and follow your favourite
trekking paths in San Martino di Castrozza this is one of the reasons that drives many enthusiasts to spend their summer holidays in the mountains. This sport, very popular also in its less strenuous version,
Nordic walking, makes it possible to establish a more direct relationship with the area and it is extremely educational when you are accompanied by expert
alpine guides. Try the magic of
trekking in the Dolomites for yourself too on the
Cristo Pensante (Thinking Christ) trekking route, so as to blend a stroll with inner reflection and listening to your own feelings, or even on the
Palaronda Trek with its fascinating Plateau at a height of over 2,500 metres.
Events and things to do
In order to make your
summer mountain holiday even better, take part in the local
events or visit the quaint villages where you can discover the
traditions and the
folklore of the Dolomites. Among these, for example,
Fiera di Primiero is worthy of mention, due to the fact that, per surface area, it is the smallest Italian municipality, which in the 15th century experienced its golden age, as it was a commercial hub for trade fairs held throughout Europe.
In any case, there are so many ideas on what to do in San Martino di Castrozza during the summer, such as canyoning, free climbing, Agility Forest activities and many others!
