Val di Non

The Val di Non is not only famous for its delicious apples, but also for its spectacular forests, meadows, lakes, villages and peaks

The Val di Non begins in Mezzocorona in the Val d'Adige, stretches along the course of the Noce river to Lago di Santa Giustina near Cles, before continuing along Rio Novella to the village of San Felice in the province of Bolzano, the only locality of the valley with a mainly German-speaking population.

The Val di Non is an ideal starting point for hikes in the Brenta Dolomites, to the Passo della Mendola, the Ortles and to Caldaro and Merano in South Tyrol (Alto Adige). Widely known for its lakes, here you can find the artificial Santa Giustina Lake, Lago di San Felice and Lago di Tovel. The latter was once known for a world-famous natural phenomenon: during the blossoming of a special algae, its water used to turn red.

Delimited by the Maddalene group in the north, the Brenta Dolomites towards south-west, the Monti Anauni in the east and the Paganella massif and Andalo pass in the south, this valley can be reached from the Val di Sole (Passo Tonale-Lombardy), the Val d'Adige (Mezzocorona), the Mendola pass (Caldaro in South Tyrol) and the Passo delle Palade (near Merano in South Tyrol). Trento and Cles are connected by a railway line, whereas Caldaro and the Passo Mendola can be reached by funicular.

The Val di Non is an ideal destination for relaxing holidays in a beautiful natural landscape characterised by hills, forests and lakes scattered on a high plateau. The stunning villages, castles and sanctuaries keep the valley's traditions and culture alive.
