Cycling in the Dolomites

Madonna di Campiglio is an ideal starting point for those looking for agile, fast bike trails with real elevation gains. The itineraries are designed to make the most of your technique: climbs, dirt tracks, single tracks and adrenaline-fuelled descents. With an e-bike, it's easy to cover longer distances and enjoy the scenery without getting too tired. Services in the area include hire, maps, charging points and workshops for minor repairs.

There are two well-maintained golf courses nearby: Campo Carlo Magno, one of the highest in Europe, and Golf Club Rendena, which is also suitable for those looking for a more relaxed course.

Via Ferrata

Via ferrata routes in the Brenta Dolomites are a technical and scenic activity for those who are well prepared and want to test themselves. Equipped routes such as the Bocchette offer exposed sections, ladder passages and rock traverses, always in complete safety. The excursions are organised by certified Alpine Guides and require appropriate equipment. Departures are early in the morning and the whole day is managed professionally.

When the sun takes a break

Practical ideas for different days

The mountains have a lot to offer in summer, even when the weather changes plans. If the sky clouds over or a few drops of rain fall, there's no need to stop: there are lots of indoor activities to enjoy, including culture, relaxation and small everyday pleasures. Museums, spas, shopping, tastings and authentic experiences allow you to enjoy your holiday to the full, without sacrificing comfort. Here you will find a selection of simple, nearby suggestions to turn every day into an occasion to remember.

Museums

A great way to discover the valley from a cultural perspective. The exhibitions in the Malga and Guerra Bianca museums tell authentic stories of Alpine life. The spaces are well maintained and accessible even to young children. An opportunity to slow down and get to know the area through different eyes. The MUSE awaits you in Trento and the Mart in Rovereto.

Castles and historic buildings

The area is home to rural residences, ancient courtyards and Alpine palaces that open their doors to visitors. Architecture and history come together in protected environments that are often uncrowded. Ideal for those seeking authentic experiences off the beaten track. Guided tours add value and context. Among the most famous are Castel Thun, Castel Stenico, Castello del Buonconsiglio and Castel Beseno.

Adventure parks

In some cases, activities suspended among the trees remain viable even in unstable weather conditions. The equipment is designed for variable conditions and there is no shortage of fun, especially for children. Always check with the facility for updated availability. Ideal for those who don't like to sit still. The unmissable attraction? The Montagnoli Adventure Park.

Educational farms

Animals, nature, local products: farms offer indoor spaces where you can learn and have fun. Children and teenagers can observe rural life up close, participating in simple and engaging activities. These often end with a farmhouse snack or tasting session. A different experience that leaves a lasting impression.

Riding stables and equestrian activities

You don't need wide open spaces to get close to horses. Some centres offer introductory lessons or short trails in protected areas. The experience is also suitable for those who have never been on a horse before. It's a wonderful way to connect with the animal and the environment, even at low altitudes.

Water sports

Water above and water below, as they say! Rafting, canyoning and hydrospeed are the ideal activities to try when it rains, allowing you to immerse yourself in truly Jurassic surroundings!

Wine cellars and tastings

Cosy surroundings, the scent of wood and carefully selected glasses: visits to wine cellars are always a pleasure. Through stories, tastings and glimpses of the vineyards, you will discover local products with personality. You don't need to be an expert to appreciate the experience. Just let yourself be guided. One name above all others? Cantine Ferrari.

Spa and wellness centres

Between hot pools, saunas and aromatic steam rooms, time loses its importance. The thermal baths in Madonna di Campiglio are perfect for unwinding and recharging your batteries. The atmosphere is cosy, relaxed and quiet. Even the indoor wellness programme allows you to relax when the weather is not on your side. The perfect place to take care of yourself. The closest ones? The Caderzone and Rabbi thermal baths.

Indoor gym

An hour of exercise can make all the difference, even on holiday. Our fully equipped gym allows you to maintain your daily workout routine, even when away from home and whatever the weather. Treadmills, weights, exercise bikes and stretching areas are always available. Great for staying active in a simple and practical way.

Shopping

The boutiques in the centre offer a carefully selected range of clothing, sports equipment and local products. Strolling among the shop windows is a pleasure, between an aperitif and a glance at the latest arrivals. Even those who don't like shopping can find something interesting. All in a typical but elegant setting.
