The magic of markets

Sometimes the atmosphere of a Christmas Market can get really magic, joining together colours, flavours and scents. In the alpine resorts it is likely to find snow at Christmas time, and it’s a show in the show, with the mountain highs in the background and the slated roofs of the villages covered with white snow .

The main Christmas markets

Christmas markets for children

Not only markets

A trip to Christmas Markets is also a good opportunity to visit places in Europe not seen before, and to rediscover cities and towns visited in other periods, with different climate conditions.

Many of the cities hosting markets usually arrange other collateral events: concerts, exhibitions, museum or castle tours, performances for children, gastronomic tours exc…  Not to forget that the visit of Christmas Markets is also a good chance to combine a ski holiday, a cultural visit, and to appreciate the natural beauties of the surroundings

In a beautiful mild area of Trentino stretched between the Garda lake and the foothills of the Brenta Dolomites, lies the little village of Rango, a bunch of houses placed one next to the other and connected by typical arcades called vòlt.  The village hides testimonies of the ancient populations who lived in this place, which are brought back to life at every Christmas time.

Narrow lanes, large arcades, old woodsheds, empty squares, little courtyards and porches lighten up with the Christmas lights.

Every year Christmas Markets make their appearance in town, with their load of lights, colours and smells.

Come discover the old peasant houses, where food and craftsman stands are filled with all sorts of delicacies and local products, in a joyful relaxed atmosphere.

Moments of joy on the footsteps of the ancient traditions of  the Alpine Christmas . An enchanted holiday in a dreamlike atmosphere.

Following a huge demand, we are delighted to announce the comeback of Christmas for the children. The little town turns into a fairy village. Along the streets animated by jesters, musicians, jugglers and singers, Saint Lucia appears with her loyal mule to distribute gidts and sweets.

Living Nativity

The village of Borgo di Canale turns for one day into the magic scene of the Nativity. Besides the shepherds with their animals, and the characters of the crib, the old arts and crafts and traditions are brought back to life.
