A journey made of people and encounters, where history, culture, and nature intertwine along ancient paths and small welcoming inhabited centers.
The San Rocco Path is a 70 km route in lower Trentino crossing Mori, Ronzo-Chienis, the Val di Gresta, and the Brentonico Plateau, territories of the Vallagarina devoted to landscape care, environmental and agricultural sustainability.
Inspired by San Rocco, protector against pandemics and a symbol figure for volunteers and pilgrims, it was born in the difficult year 2020 from a proposal emerged from the community. The route took shape step by step thanks to the discovery of 28 chapels dedicated to the saint on the territory.
Along the San Rocco Path, which unfolds over 5 suggested stages, you can cross many landscapes characterized by the heritage of the Great War, traces of the 1600 plague, churches and chapels of great historical value, terraces and dry stone walls of the Val di Gresta, fields, vineyards and noble residences, small villages and a natural park, the meadows of the Brentonico Plateau.
