Holiday apartment in Daone: trails, water and culture

Daone lies at the entrance to the valley leading to Val di Fumo and the sources of the Chiese in Adamello. Mountain pastures, large bodies of water and areas shaped by chestnut trees provide the landscape with its distinctive setting. When choosing a holiday apartment in Daone, these different aspects of the area can help structure your travel plans.

Holiday apartment in Daone among trails and water

The Percorso dei prati e dei fiori is a four-kilometre circular trail around the artificial lake of Moradino. Information boards focus on the small fauna of Val di Daone. The circular trail can be started directly in Daone by adding an extra kilometre. This means that the circuit and the starting point in the village can be considered different options for planning the day.

In Val di Daone, Lago di Casinèi lies at an altitude of 2,059 metres in a glacial hollow below Monte Remà. The lake can be reached via trail 250 from Malga di Nova. Icefalls also form along numerous streams and mountain torrents in Val di Daone; 136 have been recorded.

Stages and excursions in the Adamello area

Stage 35 of the SAT trekking route “Il Perimetro del Trentino” leads to the hamlet of Pracul in Daone, in Val di Daone. In summer, excursions in Parco Naturale Adamello Brenta are possible from Daone. Depending on your focus, you can combine longer trail sections, a circular route by the water or an excursion into nature.

Val di Daone is accessible year-round via the road that runs through Daone. In winter, conditions depend on the weather. This specific difference is part of the practical assessment of the valley and can be taken into account when planning accommodation, alongside the desired combination of village, trails and landscape.

Church, memorial and distinctive local details

The Church of San Bartolomeo acquired its present appearance in the 17th and early 18th centuries, when it was rebuilt and expanded. Its portico was used for community meetings in the 14th century. At an altitude of 929 metres, Madonna della Neve stands on the Limes plain in Val di Daone. It was rebuilt in 1959 over an older structure as a memorial to those who died during the major hydroelectric works in Val di Daone.

The enormous trunk of the silver fir Avèz de Boaz is preserved in Daone’s town hall square. Another special feature is the Piccolo Museo della Micologia Fungolife. It comprises around five rooms dedicated to specific topics and documents relating to mushrooms, and displays publications, works of art, a photo and video library, as well as minerals and fossils.

The Grotta di Aladino is also known as Grotta val di Nova and is located within the municipality of Daone. Its main entrance can be reached via a path from Malga Casinèi and then continuing via Malga Casinèi della Nova. The range of destinations thus extends from local history and mycology to mountain lakes, trails and distinctive landscape formations.

The right location for planning your trip

If you are looking for a holiday apartment in Daone, you can use your preferred holiday focus as a guide: local culture with San Bartolomeo, nature themes centred on water and ice, or trails such as the Percorso dei prati e dei fiori. For longer activities, the stage to Pracul leads into Val di Daone, while summer allows excursions in Parco Naturale Adamello Brenta.
