Encyclopedia : V : VA : VAL : Val di Sole
The Val di Sole or Valle di Sole is a region in the Italian province of Trentino. Val di Sole is a recently invented name by the local tourist board, it applies to the Val Vermiglio, the east-west aligned valley of the river Noce and its sidevalleys, among which the Val di Peio that heads to the Ortler.
Some of the towns in the Val Vermiglio are Vermiglio, Peio, Dimaro and Croviana.
The Val Vermiglio heads to the Tonale Pass, on the other side of the pass (and in the same direction as the Val Vermiglio) begins the valley of the river Oglio which flows to Edolo. In the northwest the region is bordered by the Ortlergroup with the national park Parco Nazionale dello Stelvio, in the southwest by the Adamellogroup with the nature reserve Parco Naturale Adamello Brenta. In the southern part of the region is the ski resort Madonna di Campiglio, just over the Campo Carlo Magno, a pass that leads to the Val Rendena.
In the east the region ends at Cagnò, where the main valley bends south before joining the valley of the Adige north of Trento.
