Italy, sea and mountains - ski holidays and hiking holidays
Holiday apartments, holiday houses, hotels in the Italian Alps - South Tyrol, Trentino, The Dolomites

At the thought of holiday in Italy beach and sea probably come first into people’s mind. This isn’t surprising as the largest part of Italy lies on the Apennines peninsula, which is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea. Only the extreme north of Italy includes also alpine regions.
Italy is politically subdivided into 20 regions each with its own government, from which the following (from west to east) have a share in the alpine region: Trentino, South Tyrol, Veneto, Piedmont, Aosta Valley, Lombardy, Friuli-Venezia Giulia.

Holiday apartments and holiday houses in South Tyrol:

  - Alta Badia
 - Kronplatz
 - Val Gardena (Grödne Valley)
 - Fleimstal Valley
 - Ortler Skiarena



The region of Veneto offers really everything. On one hand you can spend wonderful seaside holidays with endless sand beaches on the Adriatic coast, on the other hand the mountain summits of the Dolomites in the north promise holiday adventure of quite a special kind. Lake Garda combines water and mountains in most pleasant way and also art and cultural lovers find in Venice and Verona many interesting things. A region can hardly be more contrasting!

The most famous alpine regions of Veneto:
- Arraba
- Cortina dÁmpezzo
- Marmolada
- Lake Garda (the northern part belongs to Trentino-South Tyrol, the western part to Lombardy and the eastern part to Veneto)

Trentino-South Tyrol (Italian: Trentino-Alto Adige) is a further very popular holiday region in the north of Italy, on the sunny side of the Alps. The feature of this region is very much characterized by the Alps, in particular the Dolomites. The Italian name of the region „Alto Adige“ derived from the river Etsch and means as much as „Upper Adige“.

Popular holiday regions in South Tyrol:
- Vinschgau
- Meraner Land
- Eisack Valley
- The Dolomites
- Tauferer Ahrntal valley
- Bolzano and its surrounding area

As its name already implies, the region of Piedmont indicates its local surrounding, as the Italian word “Piemonte” literally means „ at the foot of the mountains“. Piedmont, the northwesternmost region of Italy, borders on Switzerland in the north and on France in the west. From the tourist’s point of view are following areas in the Piedmont most known:

Lake Maggiore
The Langhe (a hilly area with its city of Alba, well known to gourmets as “truffle capital”) and Sestriere (site of the Olympic Winter Games 2006).

The Aosta Valley is the smallest region of Italy and is considered as autonomous region with special status. In the west the Aosta Valley borders on the Mont Blanc, the highest mountain in the Alps. Very famous are the winter sports places Courmayeur and Breuil Cervinia (connected with Zermatt/Switzerland with an interconnected ski area).

The Lombardy with its famous capital city of Milan extends between Lake Maggiore, river Po and Lake Garda. Beside the wonderful mountain areas, as for example around the towns of Bormio and Livigno, are above all also the Upper Italian lakes
- Lake Maggiore
- Lago di Lugano (Lake Liganoo)
- Lake Como
- Lago d'Iseo (Lake Iseo)
- Lake Garda

particularly attractive to holidaymakers. Here you have the possibility to combine perfectly mountains and water.
