Tuenno, a hamlet of the municipality of Ville d'Anaunia and Rhaetian settlement, is one of the oldest villages of the Val di Non. It is overlooked by the Sant'Orsola e Compagne parish church.
This village's economy is based on agriculture and apple cultivation. Outside the village there is the ancient Santa Emerenziana church with its frescoes from the 14th century.
Tuenno stretches into the Val di Tovel, north of the Brenta group and into the Adamello-Brenta Nature Park. Lago di Tovel is certainly one of the natural highlights of the valley and one of the largest natural lakes in Trentino. This body of water is not only famous for the wonderful landscape it is immersed in, but also for the red colour its waters used to have during summer due to a special phenomenon caused by an alga. This recurrence however, disappeared in 1964. However, the lake's popularity as a hiking destination never diminished.
