Monte Macaion, called Gantkofel in German, reaches 1,866 metres and is part of the Costiera della Mendola, in the Alps of the Val di Non: the same ridge that has the Penegal to the north and Cima Roccapiana to the south. From the summit there is a wide view over the Adige valley.

For some years now the Meteotrentino weather radar has been installed on the summit, and on the service's website you can see a photograph taken in real time that covers the 360-degree panorama: a mountain that can also be seen from afar, without climbing it.

Today in the valleys

Just a moment...

Gipthe bearded vulture of Valli del Noce

Hi, I am Gip. I am a bearded vulture: my species had vanished from the Alps in the 1930s, and the first one born in Trentino in at least a hundred and fifty years took flight from Val di Rabbi this past 16 July.

Ask me about places, the valleys or the people who work here. I answer with what is in our pages: if I do not know something, I will tell you.
