The villages of the municipality of Montagna, which has about 1,700 inhabitants, are situated on a terrace above the Val d’Adige valley
Montagna is a quaint little place with numerous tiny hamlets, ranging from 400 - 1,000 m a.s.l., such as Casignano, Gleno, Pinzano, Fontanefredde and Doladizza. Hikers and nature lovers will love this place, as numerous paths and trails are winding throughout the area. A true paradise for hikers and bikers alike! In the surroundings of Pinzano, Montagna and Gleno, there are some of the best vineyards of South Tyrol, and this is also where the Pinot Nero wine grows. The area of Doladizza, however, located a little higher, is the transition zone from fruit-growing to mountain farming.
The location of Montagna is on the one hand strategic, stretching close to the Dolomite road, on the other hand it is characterised by nature, as great parts of this area belong to the Monte Corno Nature Park and the Castelfeder biotope. Centuries ago, the Val di Fiemme train ran up the slopes in this area, while today this trail is a popular mountain bike and hiking trail.
The history of Montagna left many testimonies of time in the village, from ancient residences and farms to the Roman Castelfeder and the beautiful Enn Castle, the ensemble of Pinzano, wine and nature that today present the highlights of Montagna on the South Tyrolean Wine Road.
