Lake Molveno Holidays

Part of a national park, Adamello-Brenta – the largest in Trentino – Lake Molveno is in the heart of nature. At 123 metres, it’s the region's deepest lake, and it stands out due to its vibrantly colourful landscape. The water can be enjoyed in many ways, from swimming and paddling to paddleboarding and motorboating. After a day on the water, head to the village for a pizza made from local produce, and a glass of Italian wine.

Molveno village is a small, pretty spot with an old church, and skinny lanes and alleyways that lead further up the hill. These are perfect to take if you want an even more spectacular view. Explore the street and browse the shops selling local produce, or drop in at a local museum. Try the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, or the Museum of Sciences of Trento. If castles are your thing, you’ll find some of the area’s only remaining ones here. Stenico Castle is a particular gem.

Head higher up the hill and you’ll find a range of walks, biking routes and even climbing opportunities. If you have energetic children, get the adrenaline pumping at popular Forest Park. This is located high up in the mountains. Once you're there, if you prefer to take it easy, you can enjoy the great views or stroll along the trails. Alternatively, take the whole family to the Educational Farm and learn about the stages of local cheese production.
