A route to discover the mountain rural economy of the villages of Fiavé and Favrio, whose main products are milk and all its derivatives.
The Milk Trail starts from Fiavé and heads towards the small village of Favrio, passes through a section of woods and returns to the starting point after skirting the natural peat bog reserve. Along the route there are small and large stables, green meadows, cornfields and woods, some of which in the nice season serve as pasture for animals.
Not to be missed: the villages of Fiavé and Favrio with typical rural architecture, particularly the charming 'pont' and 'èe', large spaces located on the first floor of farmhouses, which were once used for storing hay and fodder, the dairies, the slopes of the mountains once used as pasture.
A small detour through the peat bog allows you to reach the Parco Archeo Natura, an archaeological area and UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2011.
The emergency phone number is 112.

From Favrio square we follow Via San Zeno to the church, where we turn right into Via Stumiaga. After a few meters on the left, we take the path that descends towards the hamlet of Stumiaga. We cross the village and reach the main road. On the other side of the road, we take the farm road in the direction of the cemetery and then turn right to follow the path running parallel to the main road. After about 1 km, near a large stable, the route turns sharply and continues to rise towards Favrio. Reaching the small church of San Biagio, we take the path on the right and enter the woods. The route coincides with the SAT433 trail for about 500 m, but we soon leave it and take the track on the right. After an up and down of about 1 km we meet the main road again, which we cross to take the path between the peat bog and the stable. Before reaching Lake Carera, we turn right to return to Fiavé.
Fiavè is connected to the other Garda Trentino centers by the extra-urban bus line 211 (Riva del Garda - Tenno - Fiavè - Ponte Arche).
From Ponte Arche (Comano Terme) follow the signs to Fiavè. On state road 421 at the junction, take the right road leading to the town center, to the parish church of San Sebastiano.
Free parking at the Fiavé tennis courts.
This hike is quite simple and does not present particular difficulties. However, we recommend wearing suitable footwear and bringing a hat, sunscreen, sunglasses. Don't forget water.
