Madonna di Campiglio
Spend 2–3 days for skiing or summer hikes; a half‑day is enough only for a quick lift ride.
Madonna di Campiglio is a mountain resort in Trentino offering 60 km of ski runs linked to nearby villages, plus extensive summer trails, climbing routes and two golf courses. The compact centre is walkable, so a short stay covers the main activities; longer stays let you explore the wider Adamello‑Brenta Natural Park.

- Restaurants: Wait to be seated and ask for the bill; avoid: Splitting a bill item by item with a large group
