Mart
Futurism, Pop Art, international contemporary art stars and major exhibitions: the Mart in Rovereto is one of the most interesting museums on the Italian scene. The museum is on four levels, 12,000 m² in all, 6,000 of which are reserved for exhibitions. Some of the over 3,000 works by Fortunato Depero, donated by the artist to the city of Rovereto and today entrusted to the museum, are one of the most important parts of the Mart's heritage, together with those of other Futurist exponents such as Giacomo Balla, Carlo Carrà, Luigi Russolo, Gino Severini, Enrico Prampolini, Thayaht and Tullio Crali.

Muse
Opened in 2013 in the city of Trento, this science museum has quickly become one of the most famous in Italy and Europe. It covers an area of 19,000 m² and presents an exhibition that tells the story of life on Earth using the metaphor of mountains. The different levels, from top to bottom, tell the story of the formation of the Dolomites, the biodiversity of the Alps, their geopaleontological characteristics, the first human settlements and, on the lowest floor, the story of how life evolved over time. The ground floor of the museum is dedicated to children, specifically a place where they can have fun and learn while experimenting with the use of their five senses.

Lake Garda
Garda Trentino: la prima regione con clima e flora mediterranei che si incontra in Europa viaggiando verso Sud. Qui le fronde degli ulivi parlano con il vento e i limoni maturano al sole. Praticare vela e wind surf sulle onde del Lake Garda, attraversare un’infinità di sentieri in mountain bike, fare trekking e free climbing in montagna o scendere nei lunghi percorsi scavati dai torrenti, sono solo alcuni degli sport quotidiani che potete trovare in un mondo in cui è facile imbattersi in antichi castelli e dove le fiabe sono celebrate ogni anno in una magica notte di mezza estate. Il Garda Trentino è tutto questo: un mondo a dimensione d’uomo e di bambino, dove i sapori del cibo, del vino e dell’olio sono ancora veri.

Cableway Malcesine-Monte Baldo
The Monte Baldo cableway system is divided into two sections: the first, Malcesine - S. Michele, is 1512 m long and has a difference in height of 463 m, and the second, S. Michele - Monte Baldo, is 2813 m long and has a difference in height of 1187 m. The most important innovation of the cableway, what makes it unique in the world, is the characteristic of the second section's cabin to rotate on itself, offering passengers a 360° view of the area and the sensation of flying. The considerable total height difference (1650 m) is overcome with a journey of 4325 m in just 10 minutes. The capacity of 600 persons/hour with cabins for 45 and 80 seats and the truly exceptional safety: the lift is able to operate even in rough conditions and during the night.
