From source to mouth: 3,155 things in six valleys. Accents and apostrophes don’t matter.

The valleys, in real numbers

On the map there are 435 places and 1,978 businesses, each in its place. You can walk 1,972 kilometres of waymarked trails, and every photo of the places, 295 so far, carries the name of the person who took it.

435 of 435 places already have their own entry, written and checked against the sources. The rest are written one at a time: this page re-reads the numbers from the archive at every release.

The area

The area, checked place by place

210 churches, 25 castles, 93 peaks, lakes and waterfalls, the forts of the Great War. Every entry starts from the sources, and from the sources we take the facts, never the sentences: dates are checked one by one, and where the sources disagree, the entry says so instead of choosing. That is why what you read here can be checked.

Themes

What ties the places together

The same painters from Bergamo in churches far apart. A bishop who consecrates eight churches in one year, touring the valley in stages. Two brothers from Molveno behind six first ascents in the Brenta. These are links you only see by reading three hundred entries in a row, and there are 13 of them.

Gip, the bearded vulture who is the assistant of the Valli del Noce

The valleys’ assistant

Gip is back

Bearded vulture Gypaetus barbatus

The largest bird in the Alps. Wiped out a century ago, and back to nest here.

2.80 mwingspan

Its story, in three dates

It feeds on bone marrow, which is why it has never harmed a sheep. It was wiped out all the same.

The 1930sExtinct in the Alps, wiped out for a crime it never committed
1986Reintroduction begins
1998First nesting in Italy, in the Parco Nazionale dello Stelvio
16 July 2026The first chick born in Trentino in at least 150 years, in Val di Rabbi

Today sightings in Trentino are concentrated in Val di Peio, Val di Rabbi and upper Val di Sole. In other words, here.

The chick born in Val di Rabbi is called Marco, and he is not Gip: Marco is a real animal, Gip is the assistant that took its name and character from his kind.

The community

The people were already here

The platform is not starting in front of an empty room: there is already a local community, built up over the years. Every number is read from the dashboard of its own page, on a specific day that you will find written down.

The engine

The economy that stays

A local platform is not there to take value out of the valleys: it is there to keep it circulating inside them. The first round is made by those who arrive, and it takes four steps: a loop, not a ladder.

Those who work here show themselves
A hotel, a mountain farmstead, a winery, a hut, a workshop. A showcase updated by whoever runs it, not a list that goes out of date.
Those who arrive find
The map, the valleys, the threads that tie the places together. You look for somewhere to sleep and end up reading about a castle: and that castle has a village around it.
The spending stays here
Bookings and local produce go through the area’s own producers. The platform keeps a commission, not the margin.
The area tells its story better
What comes back pays for the entries, the photos with author and licence, the associations that keep the culture alive. And it brings people back to the first step.

and it starts again from the first step

And then there is the loop the tourist doesn’t see

A hotel runs out of honey in mid-August: it can order it from a wholesaler down on the plain, or find the beekeeper eight kilometres away right here. An association organising a festival finds someone to bring the sound system, someone to cook, someone to print the posters. A restaurant looking for music for one evening finds someone who plays two villages away.

It is the part closest to our hearts, and it is why the survey of businesses came before any subscription: in the mountains you don’t get far on your own. A place does not hold together because it is beautiful, it holds together if the people who work there know, choose and support each other. We are not inventing anything: we put everyone in the same room, and make sure they find each other.

Today people look each other up and call. The step we are building is a platform that knows who is looking for what, and tells you before you ask.

The first loop has already been measured forty kilometres from here166,644 bookings in one year, over 85 per cent with no commission

For those who work in the valleys

Those who keep the valleys open now have their own platform

Small hotels, farm stays, mountain farmsteads, huts, wineries, mountain guides: the platform is built first of all for the people who make this place every day.

01A showcase you update yourselfOpening hours, photos, prices: change them and it shows straight away. Not a list that goes out of date.
02Inside a community that already existsNot a new website that has to make itself known: the groups and pages of the valleys, built up over years.
03Direct bookings, no middlemenThe commission stays here, it does not leave for another city.

Free until 31 January 2027, and nothing to pay before approval. Local associations get a free space.

For those who live the valleys

Everything there is, without searching ten places

Where to sleep, where to eat, what to see, where to walk, and who really does it: the valleys are on a single map, not on ten websites that don’t talk to each other.

All in one place1,978 businesses, 435 places and 1,972 km of trails, with the events and produce of the area.
Written and checkedEvery entry carries its sources and the date it was checked. Where the sources disagree, the entry says so.
You talk to the people who are thereYour request goes to the place itself, not to a middleman, and what you spend stays in the valleys.
