Follow historic paths once favored by Emperor Franz Josef, admire the impressive Vallesinella High Falls, and cycle through forests and alpine meadows, stopping at traditional malghe to taste artisanal cheeses produced by generations of mountain dairy farmers. Along the way, discover the authentic flavors of the region, from high-altitude dairy traditions in the Brenta Dolomites to the renowned olive oil culture surrounding Lake Garda.
