Primiero Valley in Spring
In spring, the Primiero Valley is the perfect destination for those who enjoy peaceful walks through awakening forests. You can explore trails such as the Immèrgiti Sensory Path, cross the Val Noana suspension bridge, or visit the panoramic church of San Silvestro.. The longer, brighter days also allow for more challenging hikes, such as those leading to Val Canali or to mountain huts open during the low season, with the possibility of stopping for a traditional lunch at local mountain restaurants.
Spring is also the perfect time to rediscover the cultural soul of the valley: you can leisurely visit the historic villages of Mezzano, Tonadico, and Transacqua, admire the frescoes on the houses, the ancient fountains, and the Gothic churches. There are plenty of events celebrating local products, artisan markets, and activities focused on nature and well-being, such as guided walks to discover medicinal herbs or yoga sessions held in the meadows.

Spring with children
The Primiero Valley is the perfect place to experience spring with your children. You can stroll along the Via Nova, an easy panoramic trail through meadows, woods, and streams, or explore the enchanting Val Canali, where little ones can play freely in the fields, build dams in the creeks, and visit the Villa Welsperg visitor center, with educational trails designed especially for them.
If you’re looking for relaxation and peace, stop by the Navoi Wellness Gardens, a green haven with sensory trails and flowing water. Not far away, you can get up close to deer at the Paneveggio wildlife area– an exciting experience for both children and adults. And for an even more special adventure, treat yourself to a horseback ride or a pony trek at the local stables: here, spring is filled with freedom, play, and discovery.
