Monclassico

Monclassico is situated near the Folgarida and Marilleva skiing areas

Monclassico (790 m a.s.l.), the last village of the Val di Sole, is situated near the Monclassico plain and lives from fruit cultivation and especially apple production. The small loom weight found in this place vouches for the **village's origins dating back to the Iron Age.

The massive, rustic noble houses with their beautiful windows and stone portals are characterised by a picturesque architecture. At the beginning of the 21st century, an interesting project, with the aim of transforming Monclassico into the "village of sundials": every year in July, famous Italian and international artists create five sundials on the external walls of the buildings. Also the old house decorated with a huge fresco from 1511 in Piazza della Fontana and the 18th century San Vigilio church are worth a visit.

Sports lovers can have fun playing tennis, bowling or football and even try paragliding. In winter you can go skiing at the nearby Folgarida-Marilleva ski area whose ski lifts are only a stone's throw away from Monclassico. In summer, you can enjoy a refreshing swim in the biolake of the village which is also Trentino's first biolake!
