TRENTINO
Trentino is one of the two independent provinces in which the Trentino Alto Adige region is divided; the other one is the German-speaking Alto Adige (SudTirol in German). These two provinces that differ in culture, language and traditions, have a legislative and administrative autonomy recognized by the Constitution of the Italian Republic. The autonomy, a form of advanced self-government, is a social condition strongly felt by the population.
Situated in the Alps, Trentino is rich in Italian traditions and culture. It is gifted with natural beauty. From glorious mountains, valleys to daring glaciers, the list seems to be endless. Trentino shares the Dolomites with Alto Adige.
The Dolomites are special mountains because of the glowing rocks. This is due to the rays of sun. Peaks worth mention are the Torri del Vajolet and Campanil Basso di Brenta.
