Editor's Pick

Rifugio Stella d’Italia at Sommo Alto for hearty Trentino cooking and a terrace break.

THE FOOD SCENE

Trentino mountain cooking and regional produce shape the local dining choices. Rifugio Stella d’Italia at Sommo Alto offers hearty refuge cooking, while Maso Cimbro in Folgaria’s historic centre suits a lighter meal of regional cured meats and cheeses with local wine.

APRÈS-SKI & NIGHTLIFE

Après-ski is family-friendly and relaxed. The base area bars in Folgaria serve spritzes and hot chocolate. In the village, enotecas and caffè bars provide a warm Italian atmosphere for afternoon drinks. The scene is social but calm — families and couples rather than party crowds. Evening dining is the main social event.
