The most beautiful villages Of Trentino Alto Adige

Bondone is the most downstream municipality in the Chiese valley. It consists of two hamlets: the town of Bondone and the town of Baitoni, in the plain at the mouth of the Chiese river, inhabited since the mid-nineteenth century following the reclamation. On the border with Lombardy, there is the small town of the charcoal burners, which climbs the mountain that separates the Chiese basin from that of the Garda, while Baitoni, the hamlet, is reflected in Lake Idro. We advise you to visit the parish of the Nativity of the 1300s and Castel San Giovanni, an ancient fortress of the Lodron Counts, dating back to the 11th century. In the area you can take walks to the Bocca di Valle, to the Alpo refuge, to the Cima Tombea , called the "garden on the alps" (thanks to the variety of flowers and the view of Lake Garda) and to the Valvestino plain . It is a village with a complex history, intertwined with that of the surrounding lords and towns, and is known as the " village of charcoal burners " since, until fifty years ago, this was the profession practiced by the majority of the inhabitants. A curiosity concerning Bondone concerns the names of its streets: in fact during Fascism, many streets were dedicated to characters symbol of Fascism.

Vipiteno is a town of about 7,000 inhabitants in the province of Bolzano and is part of the most beautiful villages in Italy . This village boasts numerous firsts, including the second place in the ranking of happiness, the longest toboggan run in Italy and is among the first villages to inaugurate the high altitude Christmas markets . We advise you to start your visit from via Città Nuova , where pretty colored houses are lined up, in fact once the color of the house indicated the quality of the accommodation, while each sign (in wrought iron) had a meaning: for example the moon and the stars indicated the inn's opening hours until late in the evening. Walking along New Town, you will reach the town hall, a late Gothic style structure where you can admire the statue of Giovanni Nepomuceno, erected in 1739, to protect the city from the flooding of nearby rivers. The symbol of the village is the Torre delle Dodici, 46 meters high, which divides the old city from the new city. In that tower, in the past, lived a guardian who beat the hours and watched the village in case of fire, storms and wars. Near the Tower there is Piazza Città , a place where the social life of the city and the characteristic Christmas markets takes place. In the past, the square was not built to be the main square of the city, but rather to be an area built to defend the New City. Also worth seeing is the Church of Santo Spirito , which houses an important cycle of late Gothic frescoes. Another street full of life is Via Città Vecchia, a street full of bars and shops. Returning to via Città Nuova, it is also possible to admire the Commandery of the Teutonic Order , a building dating back to the thirteenth century, which houses the civic museum and the Multscher museum . Outside the city there is the parish church " Madonna della Palude ", the tallest church between Monaco and Verona, built on the remains of a Romanesque church, near the Roman cemetery restored first in Baroque style, then in neo-Gothic style. Castel Tasso and the Stanghe waterfalls are also worth a visit.

The village of Rango, part of the municipality of Bleggio Superiore, is an example of Trentino rural architecture , which was included in 2006 in the circuit of the most beautiful villages in Italy. The structure of the village is typical of fortified towns and, to go into the village, you have to climb panoramic plateaus, so beautiful as to take your breath away. In the village, the Renaissance buildings are joined by peasant elements, which tell of a past of shepherds and merchants, pilgrims and travelers from afar, who stopped here after crossing the mountains. Once upon a time, rural houses housed men and cattle. An important gathering place at the time was the square, where the inhabitants gathered. Not to be missed are the village of Balbido and the church of Santa Croce , with the seventeenth-century chapel which contains a baroque altar made of gilded wood. During the Christmas period, a characteristic Christmas market takes place, where the village shows its best. The protagonists of the table in the village of Rango are the Bleggio nut and its wines, so much so that the village is part of the " Wine and Flavor Route from Lake Garda to the Brenta Dolomites" .
