responsible behaviour

Every journey leaves a footprint: it is also up to you to decide which one.

In Trentino, we welcome you to a living territory made of nature, communities, and fragile balances that are maintained thanks to simple but concrete actions. Good practices are not abstract rules: they are everyday attentions that allow you to experience the territory in a more authentic way, respecting and protecting it as you discover it.

Here you will find some useful guidelines to accompany you during your stay: small tips that make a difference, for you and for those who will come after you.
Experiencing this territory also means taking care of it, together.
