Molveno, famous for the lake of the same name—one of the most beautiful in Italy—is an ideal destination for families and children. This town offers countless recreational opportunities, both at high altitudes and at lower elevations: walks, relaxing on the lake’s beaches, mountain huts, playgrounds, and much more! It’s about a 40-minute drive from Trento. You can park your car in the spacious Ischia parking lot, located just a stone’s throw from the beach, for 15 euros a day. Book your spot conveniently online from home HERE, and you won’t have to worry about a thing! Here’s everything you can do:
LAKE MOLVENO
The walk around Lake Molveno is about ten kilometers long, takes two and a half hours to complete, is not difficult, has no significant elevation changes, and can even be done with a stroller. Plus, there are spacious beaches where you can relax, plenty of playgrounds for children, water sports, and electric pedal boats. More info HERE.
MOLVENO WATER PARK
A recreational pool with water features, a fun 8-meter slide, and a relaxing hot tub await you at the Molveno pool, an outdoor facility located on the shores of the beautiful lake. More info HERE.
A WALK ALONG THE RIO MASSÒ
This is the perfect walk if you have kids in a stroller or if you’re looking for a very easy outing. In twenty minutes, you’ll reach an area where the stream forms a series of waterfalls, cascades, and small natural pools. More info HERE.
