Adamello Brenta Nature Park – Trentino-Alto Adige. Dolomites, alpine lakes and protected nature in the heart of Trentino.
The Adamello Brenta Natural Park is the largest protected area in Trentino, located between the Brenta Dolomites (UNESCO World Heritage Site) and the Adamello-Presanella massif. It is home to over 80 lakes, extensive forests, waterfalls, glaciers, and abundant wildlife. It is a place where nature is the protagonist and you can explore it with respect, step by step. 🦌 Authentic encounters in the wild kingdom:
The park is the habitat of bears, chamois, deer, golden eagles, marmots and roe deer. The paths wind through intact environments, between centuries-old woods and high-altitude pastures. The visitor centers tell the story of biodiversity and the fragile balance of these ecosystems.
