Since 2004, the site that loves the Cembra Valley: be wary of the replicas
[last update: November 2008]
The Cembra Valley, in Trentino, is a not well known beauty.
Many people may even ignore that this place exists, with all its naturalistic attractions, with its dialect, the Cembran(*), which still keeps characters of the Ladin language, with its people, traditions, scents
I discovered it in recent times too.
Fortunately, the valley isn't devoted to a mass tourism: the people who love quietness, woods, trekking, nature will enjoy it. Besides, its roads are excellent for cycling (indeed, both Moser and Simoni are Cembran cyclists).
This humble site aims to show some of its beauties: I hope it'll make the reader curious, induce him to look for some more information and, maybe, tempt him to pass some pleasant time in this valley: Elio Antonelli defines it «[ ] alpine in its scenery, mediterranean in its climate, silent, restful, wild.» (Segonzano e Sevignano page 7 [quote translated by me]).
After all, the valley is an excellent place to start toward the discovery of Trentino and a base for reaching its many winter sports resorts.
