giampiero6 Says: This lovely large waterfall in the Val Genova area is a beautiful place to head. You can admire the falls from the bar/restaurant across the way. The food is quite good and the atmosphere excellent. Enjoy the beer and barbecue during the summer. You will have to drive to a...
giampiero6 Says: In the areas around Carisolo there are many mountain rifugi where you can stop for a bite, a grappa, a coffee, fresh cream and berries or a nice berry or nut crostata. Usually you'll be hanging out in a granite hut, in green meadows with only the sound of mooing and cowbells...
giampiero6 Says: The Trentino and Carisolo is a bit inconvenient to get to unless you have a car. Generally flying in from the US consists of a flight to Milano Malpensa airport, a bus to the center, a train to trento and then another bus to Carisolo. It can be very long and tiring. However,...

giampiero6 Says: Bring a nice sturdy pack with a good frame. At some parts of the hike, it gets steep and if you're carrying a really heavy load the weight distribution the frame offers is a big plus. You might want a day back or a bag that zips off a large pack for when you get up to the...
Downhill Skiing. Madonna di Campiglio and Pinzolo.
giampiero6 Says: If you're coming to this part of the world in the winter, you absolutely cannot miss skiing here. Madonna di Campiglio is one of Europe's Premier ski resorts with a huge terrain that covers 2 sides of the valley. While Pinzolo is much smaller and often has less snow, there...
giampiero6 Says: Malga Ritort is another rifugio a little lower down and across the valley. There's a great restaurant and you can have wild berries with fresh cream from cows milked right outside. So fresh you can taste the delicious grassy freshness in the cream!
