trentino lakes & mountains
Five nights from vineyards to valleys to mountains to lakeside — hosted by a friend on his home Trentino turf.
This is Sentiero at its most personal — a route built around a friendship as much as a region. A local winemaker opens his own vineyard and hometown to you, then the road climbs out of wine country into the Dolomites before dropping to the shore of Lake Garda. Every element here — route, pace, lodging, season — is built to be adjusted around you.

Day by Day
01
Arrival & The adige river
Arrive in the Vallagarina and settle into Casa del Vino della Vallagarina. A gentle warm-up ride follows the Adige River to explore Trento, the capital of the Trentino region, and back along flat riverside paths, before an evening built around the house's own wine list.
02
riding tour of Rovereto vineyards led by winemaker owner
A friend's own vineyard opens its gates for a private day — a ride through Mori's vineyard roads, a walk through the rows with the winemaker himself, a tasting of the estate's Chardonnay, Pinot Nero, and Terra Piena, and dinner at one of his favorite tables in his hometown.
03
Into the Mountains via Arco and the Sarca
Bags move ahead by car for the ride north, following the Sarca River through Arco into the foothills of the Brenta Dolomites, arriving at Hotel Castel Mani by evening with Dolomite views from the terrace.
04
Brenta dolomites to lake garda
A thrilling ride with climbs and descents through the Valli Giudicarie, Lago di Tenno, and down to the shores of Lake Garda before settling into the Lido Palace, your Riva del Garda home for the next 2 nights.
05
free day on the lake
A day built around the water — take the boat to Malcesine or Limone sul Garda, or saddle up for an optional ride to Lago di Ledro. Either way, the afternoon belongs to the terrace.
06
Departure
A relaxed morning before a private airport transfer— or extend your stay to Malcesine, Verona, Bolzano or the Dolomites
This is one way to spend five nights in the Langhe. Yours can look entirely different.
