Nordic walking in Val di sole; all-round well-being

A session of Nordic Walking in Val di Sole is a true elixir for mind and body.
This sport was developed as a form of training for cross-country skiers, to then be taken up by anyone looking to stay in shape while spending a pleasant few hours in the countryside.

With the use of poles, this form of exercise tones not only the legs but also the arms, chest and shoulders, without stressing the knees. It is a form of exercise that can be defined as complete. The trials in the midst of the wilderness also help to combat another enemy of good health; stress.

Our Hotel Caminetto is located in an ideal position for this discipline; wide and easy trails, forests for enjoying cool temperatures even in the summer, breath-taking panoramas and a wide range of Alpine dairies and chalets for pleasant breaks along the way. Not everyone knows it, but it is possible to enjoy a session of Nordic Walking even in the winter: in Val di Solem there are dedicated beaten tracks.
