Pile Dwellings by Lake LedroPhoto: Archivio Garda Trentino (ph. Roberto Vuilleumier), Garda Trentino
Whoever visits Valle di Ledro can’t miss the promenade along the shore of Lake Ledro, with its four beaches and its villages (Pieve, Mezzolago and Molina).
To say nothing of the pile-dwelling village and the woods of Pur. The dispensers available all along the route make it the perfect itinerary for walking out one’s dog, truly animal friendly!
Author’s recommendation
The Pile-Dwellings Museum, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Foletto Museum in Pieve and Ledro Land Art in the pinewood of Pur are not to be missed.
