Spring at the foot of the Pale di San Martino

Between strolls, bike rides and cultural visits, savour the slow side of the Dolomites

"Those who do not know San Martino di Castrozza do not know the Dolomites". [Günther Langes - writer and mountaineer]

The Pale di San Martino dominate the valley floor, dotted with villages that welcome you in the silent spring with the warmth of their traditions. From the cobbled street you can admire the sun rising between the peaks, warming you throughout the day and accompanying you on the paths of the Val Canali, dominated by the ruins of Castel Pietra that you can reach with a guide.

In the Valle di Primiero , walk at a slow pace along paths and cycling-pedestrian tracks, climbing a little higher, away from the noise and the classic tourist routes.

A natural well-being that here, among the Trentino Dolomites, has the vivid colour of spring light.

Visit to Castel Pietra

Castel Pietra, a monument to the history of the area and an endless source of legends and stories handed down through the generations, rises on the summit of an enormous erratic boulder. In recent years, it has been the subject of a major redevelopment project, with a new metal staircase and a series of railings that allow access to the structure. In order to visit the ruins of Castel Pietra, you must be accompanied by a qualified mountain guide or a mid-mountain guide.
