Madonna di Campiglio, Italy

Known as ‘the Pearl of the Brenta Dolomites’, holidays to Madonna di Campiglio are all about top-notch food, culture and knockout natural beauty.

The high life

Once a popular pick for nobles because of its fresh mountain air and thermal springs, the town still has a high-end feel today. It’s got a reputation for being a good place to people-watch while you sip on a spritz, browse in designer boutiques and tuck into a big plate of fresh pasta, polenta or dumplings.

A natural beauty

If you have a love for all things nature, there are stacks of walking trails up in the Adamello Brenta Natural Park – a UNESCO-protected area with rugged Dolomite peaks and lots of lakes to visit. Breathe in the fresh mountain air here, or wander through the fir-tree forest to a waterfall. And make sure stop off at Malghette lake to look out over the glassy water before heading back down to the town.

Famous frescoes

To check out some local culture, catch a bus a few towns over to Pinzolo and stop at the medieval Church of San Vigilio, known for its ‘dance of death’ fresco. Or for a good look into Trentino’s alpine roots, take a day trip to Caderzone Terme, a rural mountain village with heaps of character – stroll down the winding streets to find out all about life in one of Val Rendena’s oldest settlements. There's a few museums plus a spa here, so brush up on your history before ending the visit with a soak in the bubbling thermal baths.
