1.2K

Val di Fassa is one of the most beautiful and well-known valley in Trentino Alto Adige.

In every season, here you can find all the sort of activities, leisure, sports and relax suggestions for every age.

In summer time the best thing you can do in Val di Fassa, as all other valleys is go trekking in the wonderful trails that offer you unique landscapes… but, we know, when we travel with children…is not always easy to convince them to walk for hours, maybe through uphill trails… you have always to find something to amuse them, something that is not boring and too strenuous.

It was more or less with the above premises that I discovered this unmissable location in the heart of Val di Fassa, maybe a bit hide compared to the more famous attractions.

This is Giro d’Ali.

The Giro d’Ali is an open-air park, located in Bellamonte, just 12 minutes by car from Predazzo.
The park is set in a particular sunny area, with an enchanting view of the Paneveggio Natural Park, the unspoiled Lagorai Chain and the majestic Pale di San Martino part of Dolomites Unesco group.
The exact location of the Park is in Le Fassane, at an altitude of 1750 Mt, easily reachable with the Bellamonte Cable car and don’t forget to keep your eyes peeled: If you pay attention to the special cable car number 73, called “Nidoplano”, equipped with a transparent floor, you will have the chance to observe the underlying panorama, from the top, as only the Birds are able to do! 🙂

Giro D’Ali is without doubts the ideal solution for families with children to enjoying relax and fun, but what are you going to find exactly there? (Open the Map of the Park)

You will find an animated Creek with exciting interactive play stations, in which the children can learn to maintain the balance during the raft crossing on the lake, they can have the possibility find out how to escape to the mischievous water-spitting birds, they will hone their intuition in the adventurous search for gold with the sieves, and again, they will have to strive to manage the water flows of the mill and the locks.

Now probably, you, as Parent, you can ask me: “Meantime that our children amuse them self, what we are supposed to do?” The Park is not just for the children! Adults can enjoy the sun bathing in fantastic big size sun loungers, prepare the lunch in the wooden gazebos as DIY Pic-nic, can try the regenerating Kneipp path and the foot massage station: in simple words, a little spa, for body and mind inside the green of the mountains!
