Sondrio (Valtellina)

Olympic peaks and heroic vineyards

ActiveFamilies

Why only here

Terraces built by hand over centuries hold vines at the foot of glaciers, and in 2026 the Olympic downhill runs above them. Valtellina is the only place where Nebbiolo, Bernina ice and thermal baths fit into one day.
