Madonna Di Campiglio
summerToday, I am taking you to one of my most favorite spots in the Trentino region of Italy, to a small village tucked away in the Dolemites called, Madonna Di Campiglio. A little slice of heaven, for the adventurous couple, looking for a more off beat honeymoon. Campiglio is filled beauty and tons of outdoor activity, whether it's a visit during winter ski season or beautiful summer time travel for the fresh mountain air, hiking and rock climbing. I have to admit, I'm particularly fond of the a winter honeymoon trip. The setting in the mountains is ultra romantic, filled with beautiful snowfalls, sports, spa and snuggling in front of to the fireplace, what more do you need? oh yes, your loved one right next to you of course.

Pappagallo, Via Adamello, 58, telephone 0465442717 this is by far the BEST family style pizzeria. It's a bit off the beaten path from the main village but it's a hidden gem that worth the trek. Be prepared to wait, as it is the largest and most popular restaurant with locals. There's more to the menu then just pizza, I highly recommend, Canederli con brodo or burro.
Malga Montagnoli is directly on the Spinale ski slopes. At night, arrive by snow cat and dine by the great log fire and if your feeling ultra adventurous, you can head back to your hotel on your skis in torch lit descent. During the summer it can easily be reached by car, just a few minutes from the center of campiglio.

Some typical mountain dishes you will want to try:
- Polenta con funghi, this is the quintessential mountain dish
- Spetzle, typical mountain pasta with sage butter or little pieces of speck (which is a pepper cured prosciutto)
- Crostata di mirtilli, Italians take on blueberry pie, its delish! typical desert in the mountains since the blueberries grow all over.
