And that’s only a taste! On Monte Baldo you can also practice sport such as nordic walking or paragliding and, in winter, snowboard, snowshoeing and skiing with an extraordinary view over the lake. An amazing mystical place in the heart of the Monte Baldo rocks is also worth discovering: the Santuario della Madonna della Corona, hanging between earth and sky, grabbed on to the rocks of the surrounding mountains and overhanging over the Val d’Adige.
It is the perfect place for those who are looking for peace and meditation and it is also appreciated by trekking enthusiasts: the wooded path up to the sacred place has a difference in height of about 600 meters with more than 1500 steps and a 2 hours walking route.
