The Alpine city of the Council. A jewel that unites history, culture, and innovation. Explore the Buonconsiglio Castle, the medieval old town, and the ultra-modern MUSE museum, surrounded by the Trentino Dolomites.
A few metres below Piazza Cesare Battisti lies an entire quarter of Roman Trento: paved streets, city walls, mosaics and a glassmaker’s workshop, uncovered when the Teatro Sociale was restored. The SASS lets you walk through Tridentum, and it makes an ideal half day away from the upper lake.
There is no continuous, safe cycle path all the way around Lake Garda: the western shore road runs through narrow tunnels. But over seven days, combining train, ferry and bike, you cross the whole territory, from Trento down to Riva, along the Verona shore and on to Mantua and Verona. Here is the route, stage by stage.
Let’s find out together what to do and what to see in Trento, the city that opens its doors to the heart of the Alps.
