Things to do

3
  1. Noce

    Canyon · 4 hr

    National Geographic put the Noce among the ten best rafting rivers in the world and first in Europe. It is glacier-fed, so it keeps grade three and four water through July when other Alpine rivers have dropped, and the gentler run from Monclassico to Cavizzana is the family one.

  2. Parco naturale Adamello Brenta

    Park · 6 hr

    The Brenta Dolomites on the south side of the valley, where the via ferrata was first developed as a mountaineering technique. Bocchette routes here are cabled traverses across vertical rock and need a harness and a head for it. Access is from Madonna di Campiglio and Molveno.

  3. Parco nazionale dello Stelvio

    Park · 6 hr

    One of the largest national parks in the Alps, covering the glaciated ground north of the valley up to the Ortles range. It carries long high-level routes and huts, and the days on them are long. The Peio and Rabbi valleys are the usual ways in from this side.
