Bondone

Summer

It is the Southernmost municipality of the Valle del Chiese valley, at the farthest South-West border of Trentino. Straddled with Lombardy, this "small coal village", features quiet alleys and the multi-coloured wall paintings they are decorated with. While its administrative division Baitoni is reflected in Lake Idro, Bondone - some 6 kilometres away - climbs up the mountain dividing the Chiese basin from Lake Garda's.
Worth visiting is also the 14th Century Nativity parish and Castel San Giovanni, an age-old fortress that belonged to the Lodron Counts dating back to the 11th century.
The entire area is ideal for healthy walks onto the Bocca di Valle, up to the mountain-hut of Alpo, to the Cima Tombea peak (1947 mm a.s.l.), depicted as the "garden on the Alps" for its autochthonous and multi-various flora, and its marvellous view over Lake Garda and the Valvestino plain.
