This year, the Itinerant Story leads us on Doss Trento, a pleasant and verdant hill, easy to reach, with good views on the city of Trento.

As in previous editions, the writer Enrico Brizzi, president of the jury of Montagnav(v)entura, takes part in the walk, and involves us in a pleasant conversation along the way.

This and other aspects related to literature, travel, and mountain, make this walk a quite unique and special event. However, we publish the route also for the benefit of those who want to repeat it, due to its historic and scenic significance.

Access

You can take advantage of one of the parkings at the Quartiere le Albere, or the nearby Monte Baldo Parking, but you can also start the tour at the Cableway of Sardagna, after parking your vehicle at the ex-SIT parking (see map).
