TRENTINO: LONGING FOR SPORT

Practising sport in Trentino is a natural, instinctive activity. This is thanks to the varied, attractive shape of this region, which offers a very wide range of incredible changing environments, from the 3,000-metre-high peaks in the perennial glaciers, to the Mediterranean climate of Arco and of lake Garda.
Thanks, indeed, to the deep-rooted sport tradition and to the organising ability of almost 700 associations, clubs and companies - most of them run by volunteers - that follow and promote the different disciplines, helped by high-quality, modern and efficient structures, built through the generous investments of the Autonomous Province of Trento.
From this perfect match between sporting activity and hospitality originates one of the most important reasons for holidaying in Trentino, considered a small “paradise” for lovers of active stays; as a matter of fact, our region can offer healthy, phisically demandind activities as well as moments of complete relaxation.
For the children of our land, situated as it is in the heart of the Alps, feels somehow natural, a short time after taking their first steps, to venture up some mountain paths or, over the winter, to take on skiing. Much in the same way, our guests will, within a few days, be longing to “spice up” their holidays with some hiking, a refreshing swim in a pool, a tennis game or a mountain bike ride.
Not to mention experienced sportsmen and sport-lovers who, supported by their enthusiasm, come to Trentino sure to find the ideal theatre for practising their favourite activity: from trekking to mountaineering at all levels, from sailing to windsurfing, from canoeing and kayaking to horse riding.
Just a small note, finally, to say (although it should be taken for granted considering the great attention that all guests of our region pay to nature and the environment) that in sport, just as in real life, limits must be looked for within ourselves, and comparisons made with our actual energies and abilities. According to this attitude, every action which challanges the elements surrounding us  is nothing but absurd, and a more fulfilling approach must be preferred, based on moderation, common sense and respect for the environment we live in. Safety for everybody while practising sport is our motto.
This said, all we have to say is have fun and enjoy your stay in Trentino!
