Exciting tour that allows you to cross one of the most evocative valleys of Valsugana: the Val di Sella, known above all for the modern art exhibition of Arte Sella. The route starts from the town of Borgo Valsugana and climbs up a road between the landscapes of the Armentera cliffs and the beech, larch and fir woods, which in Spring and Summer create a magical green atmosphere and in Autumn turn into thousend shades of yellow, orange and red. At the top you should not miss a visit to Arte Sella and a stop in the restaurants of the area for a snack or a lunch with typical products and traditional dishes of Valsugana.
