Trentino Alto Adige

Pietro nel mondo

Bolzano Trento

My travels in this region are relatively recent, always in the summer, and it has been an alternation between history and nature. A land of valleys where nature is spectacular everywhere starting from the Dolomites, a natural monument; in the western part, particularly in the

Adamello Brenta park, you can encounter wild fauna, primarily the brown bear, but also wolves, lynxes and other species

hard to see elsewhere. A land rich in medieval castles and places to visit: Trento, Bolzano and many small villages that

especially in winter dress up for the holidays and come alive with Christmas markets. The cuisine is tasty and caloric as required by the

mountains. As a first course I prefer Spatzle, Tyrolean gnocchi seasoned in various ways; as a second course the Potato Tortei of the

Val di Non; for dessert an Apple Strudel or Buckwheat Cake. Of the wines, I prefer the Traminer Aromatico, a white wine whose

I also admired the wonderful vineyards.
