Discovering Stelvio National Park

Favourite destination for cyclists and bikers, that on its many hairpin bends show off their skill, the Stelvio Pass is the kingdom of sportsmen, that here can ski also in the summer. To discover Stelvio, the ideal is however to visit the famous national park that preserves its nature still uncontaminated.
Between Lombardia and Trentino-Südtirol, in the heart of the central Alps, the national park of Stelvio is extended on a surface of 130.700 hectares, dominated by the tops of Ortles and Cevedale mountains. The many tourist runs proposed by the Stelvio Park allow the visitors to walk up to the 3.905 meters of the glacier of the Ortles.
Just the ample high excursion among the different zones of the Park allows admiring innumerable botanical species, sometimes very rare as the ranuncolo of the glaciers.
Particularly variegated it is also the fauna of the Stelvio: besides the alpine Ibex, official symbol of the National Park, in this special habitat it is also possible to see chamois, eagles, foxes, marmots, ermines and sparrow hawks.
