In this mini-guide, we’ve compiled a list of the best places in Trentino-Alto Adige for indoor climbing—even with kids—or, more specifically, for bouldering. Bouldering is a form of rock climbing that originated in the 1970s. The boulders can be natural outdoor formations or artificial indoor structures.
