Brenta Dolomites and Madonna di Campiglio

Back in 1864, alpinists Tuckett and Ball set eyes on the Campanile Basso and Alto, bringing the Brenta’s limestone towers to wider attention. From the Giudicarie valleys up the Rendena, the road from Riva del Garda climbs via Stenico’s gorge and Pinzolo’s forests before the Cima Tosa (3,173 m) suddenly fills the windscreen. At 1,550 m, Madonna di Campiglio still bears traces of Habsburg winters. Covering about 55 km through Tione di Trento in roughly 1h15, the ascent explains why you meet both Presanella mountain cheeses and Spressa delle Giudicarie DOP along the way.

Your Amani driver collects you at your Riva del Garda hotel and keeps a Mercedes at your disposal all day: photo stops at Cascate Nardis, gondola up Pradalago or Grostè if weather allows, rifugio lunch, then a scenic return via Carisolo and Villa Rendena. You taste and explore while he drives. Flexibility is built in—detour to Valagola lake or a quick espresso on Madonna’s piazzetta—while drop-offs hug trailheads, bags stay warm in the car, and timing shifts with clouds and appetite.
